Yes and No. Yes, it works directly with HD connected to N800 and a tail attached to the labtop PC for power. It works this way. No. It does not work with the USB HUB if the USB hub is powered by a laptopPC. My guess is laptopPC is NOT powerful enough to power the USB HUB but is powerful enough to power the HD directly. So, that means any kind of power-brick is out of the question for this particular palmsize drive, I guess.
