[QUOTE="r1vver, post: 10111254, member: 434047"] Don't get too carried away with the length. The first link from search about lengths and standards: [URL]https://www.yourcablestore.com/USB-Cable-Length-Limitations-And-How-To-Break-Them_ep_42-1.html[/URL] This refers to a regular (passive) USB cable. And it's about data transmission. There will also be a drop in voltage. The longer the cable, the greater the drop. The better the cable conductors (thicker, more copper), the lower the drop. So you need a cable with thicker power conductors. And the longer the cable, the thicker they should be. A meter and a half isn't much, but don't forget that (some) manufacturers almost always cheekily lies. They knows about economics and marketing and the (minimally reasonable) cable labeled 28+24AWG (28 for data and 24 for power) can easily turn out to be trashy 30+30AWG. So the option with an active hub or the option with disk enclosure with its own power supply is not so bad after all. I would probably also try making a vibration-absorbing pad under the disk. Update: By the way, try lining the inside of the shelf with sound-absorbing material. That is, not only the "floor" of shelf but also the side and back "walls" and the "ceiling" of shelf. Maybe it's not so much a vibration as an echo. [/QUOTE]
