Hi @kobi,

Yes, it will work via USB without the battery connected.

Bloated battery

I had the very same problem today. I was present when it happened. I thought my drive was about to get burst. It poped completely. Because I needed to protect my data from burst I disconnected it immediately . After removing the battery I plunged again… and my data was there [image]…I think the battery is not designed to be competed all day as I have it.

Erm… The bloated battery opened the drive case. @kobi didn’t open the case.
