when i connect my 2.5" usb 3 external drive to my wdtv via a non-powered usb hub i would get a clicking noise which was not there if i connected it directly to wdtv's usb port. i read that it may be due to drive not getting enough power
so i bought a a powered usb hub from ebay thinking it would solve the issue but it hasnt.
this is the model i bought

now even though the packaging of the hub says that a 2A power adapter is included what has been provided is a 500ma adapter.
if i'm not mistaken thats the same power that a non-powered usb hub would give, right?
what should be the power rating of the power adapter in order for it to be a true powered usb hub? right now the performance of this hub is no different from the plain usb hub that i had earlier.
the seller is not answering my query about the discrepancy in the power adapters. should i file a claim?
