I've been using this item for years and is so handy to keep track of my iPhone without a pocket, etc being encumbered. Unfortunately, the belt clip snapped off the hinge. All I needed was a replacement clip. But, due to whatever, Otterbox was unable to fulfil their guarantee of replacement. Thankfully I was able to track it down and find it at BB.

And when you use iCloud Photo Library, all your full-resolution photos and videos are stored safely in iCloud and automatically added to the Photos app on all your devices.

I'm sure it works exactly as intended, but when I got it home I realized it wasn't a charging adapter for the older style iphone connectors (yes that old), but a card reader that I have no need for. I'll have to return and exchange it.

Performs it's function admirably. Needed to connect an older but still in the box monitor to my laptop and surprise - no hdmi or disply ports on it - only vga. This was the ticket. Hooked it up and it works fine.

I needed a USB 2.0 ethernet adapter, not a 3.0, which I bought, but it wouldn't work on the older laptop whose adapter had died. Took a bit to choose the drivers online - there were several choices when the installer searched online. Works fine though.

Love 'em.
Only criticism is the quality is beginning to fade a little. They used to be solid, no they seem to be a little "plasticky".
Still love em.

Can't say anything bad about it - I knew all the limitations it had before getting it.
The only thing I would change in hindsight is the keyboard and it's lighting. I'm sure I'll get used to the keyboard, but using it in the dark is very annoying for me unless I'm sitting looking down on it, since from an angle, back lighting is distracting.
Other wise, so far, a good purchase.

I thought Oh, 3.0 will be better! Only my old laptop that I'm trying to keep alive doesn't have any 3.0 usb ports. The driver wouldn't install. Had to downgrade with another 2.0 adapter, Once I found the driver, it worked fine.

Store plenty of files on this Seagate Expansion STEB4000100 external USB 3.0 hard drive that features a generous 4TB capacity to accommodate your media collection. Data transfer rates up to 4.8 Gbps ensure efficient operation.
 

what power supply does a Seagate 8T expansion desktop drive need

I'm sorry I have no idea why it would be different from the product I purchased. My 4tb has a cord that I plug into a socket on my ups and I never questioned it. Check with the manufacturer.

 j5create - USB-C Triple Display Docking Station with 100W PD Adapter

This triple display docking station turns your Mac or Windows laptop into a full workstation with a DisplayPort output, two HDMI outputs, and a VGA output, with resolution support up to 4K (3840 x 2160) on two displays and 1080p on the other one. You can also use your laptop screen for four displays in total, making it easy to access multiple applications at once. With 100W Power Delivery, three USB 3.0 ports, and a USB-C port, the docking station is perfect for your MacBook, Dell XPS, or other USB-C laptop requiring additional ports. This USB 3.0 docking station is also equipped with an RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet port, memory card reader/writer, and combo audio jack for maximum productivity. The elevated design assists with heat dissipation and, with its double-sided cable storage compartment, ensures an easy connection regardless of your USB-C port’s location. All 13 ports are combined into one slim docking station, so you’ll have all the connections you need to stay productive!
 

Will this unit work with a Lenovo Flex 15 which has just the one USB Type C port (which has the power connector plugged into it currently) The Flex unit I have is an Intel I-7 with 16 GB ram.

I myself would direct the question to the manufacturer of the equipment being powered.

Can you partition this drive? I have 2 laptops and data from a 2TB External SSD drive I want to back up on it. But use it as the location for my Microsoft OneDrive as well.

I myself have no idea. I would go to Seagate, the manufacturer, and ask them.

Can this stay plugged into my PC at all times? I need something so I can free up my disk space on my PC,but still have easy access to the files.Thanks

I would verify it with the manufacturer, but I believe that is one of the main purposes of the product, both file access and file backup.

Will this connect Ethernet able to a microsoft surface pro 7 usb-c?

At this point, my answer is NO. The product box/instructions states for W10. It states for W10 the OS should be able to find a driver automatically. There is a cd included with intstall software and I used that before connecting the hardware. The setup program has an option for W7 and other OSs. It appeared to install correctly but could not connect the hardware effectively.
I haven't been able to take the time to contact Insignia to see what my options are.
