This external drive is remarkably tiny for the 2 TB it holds!
It will easily fit into even the smallest pocket of a laptop sleeve (or bag). I reformatted the drive from the exFAT it comes with to NTFS, and then performed some speed tests. I connected it to a fast USB-C port on my computer and obtained a speed of ~1000MB/s, consistent with what most others have found. This is fine for my needs. I use this drive to make backups of my laptop. I highly recommend this drive!

My new ASUS Strix G16 16 inch laptop is thick and has a large 280 Watt power brick. This backpack can easily handle both, and has plenty of space to spare! My laptop fits comfortably in the main storage area. There is even space to insert a little extra padding on the bottom and sides when making longer trips. There are three nested pockets on the front. My large 280 Watt power brick fit easily in the smallest pocket. I put its power cord in the second largest pocket, with plenty of room for my gaming mouse and my gaming pad. The largest pocket I use for papers, and a little extra padding. I was able to snatch this up on Cyber Monday for just $10 ! The backpack is well made, with a good and solid handle. I recommend this backpack.

This usb hub provides excellent value. It provides additional usb 3.0 ports, and they are far enough apart to permit use of all 4 of them at the same time. Although the cord is somewhat short, it is fine for use with laptops. It is also sturdy enough to be used in a hanging position with my pc tower. It looks and feels well made.

This briefcase is an excellent fit for my new ASUS Strix 16" gaming laptop. This laptop is considerably thicker than an ordinary 16" laptop, yet it fits comfortably into one of the main pockets of this case. It is also afforded good padding by the case. When closed up with the laptop inside, the case is a good thickness, again illustrating its padding. There is a large exterior pocket that can easily hold a mouse, a large wattage usb c charger, and an external ssd drive. The handles of the case are sturdy and comfortable to hold. There is a shoulder strap provided with the bag. I was able to get this briefcase with a considerable discount, making it an excellent buy. I highly recommend this briefcase!

How long does it take to charge this lamp? I have it hooked into a charger for a long time (6 hrs), and the red light as yet has not gone off! Isn't that light supposed to go off when it is fully charged?

Can you listen to tapes in the stereo?
I have played stereo cassette tapes in this boombox, and can verify that you get true stereo sound out of the boombox from them. The same is true when tuned in to fm stereo stations, and when playing stereo mp3 files from a usb stick. An added note - the mp3 files obtained from copying stereo cassette tapes using this boombox are also true stereo.

I must transfer short clips from CDs to cassette tape. Can I connect jacks from my amp directly to the tape recorder, and fade-in fade-out?
With the appropriate cable or cable adapter you can plug the output from your amp directly to the AUX Input on the side of the boombox. You can then record to the cassette recorder. There are no controls on the boombox to provide fade-in fade-out, however.

How many hours of airplay does the battery charge last? Does it come with AC/DC adaptor for standard wall plugs? Thank you
The boombox comes with an ac cord to plug it into a wall socket. You use it to charge the built-in internal rechargeable battery. The hours of airplay you get on a full charge will depend on how it is being used: the loudness setting for the speakers, whether you are using bluetooth, whether you are playing or recording with the cassette player/recorder. With the speakers set to moderate volume for a small room and playing the radio I have run the radio for 10 hours with no problem.

Yes you can. You can stream in from a bluetooth connected device, such as a smart phone or a tablet, and record to a cassette in the boombox (or a usb stick, or a micro sd card in the boombox). As noted in a previous answer, you need to adjust the volume of the external device to get a good recording.
