Powering two disks from RockPro64
#1
Hello all. I'm thinking about following option:

connect one 2.5" HDD to a USB3.0 port and second HDD to a USB-C port. Can be both powered on simultaneoulsy only from USB?
If I transfer data from one disk to another will the data transfer be too slow because both disk are on the same USB3 controller?

What if I connect the second disk to a USB2 port?

Only one disk will be working 24/7. The other one will only be turned on for weekly backups.
