Does this unit have its own power supply and also does your computer have to be on to use the clock, or just to download reports.

Yes, the unit has it's own power supply and our computer does not have to be on to use the clock, you can just download the report when you turn on the computer and click into the software.

The unit comes with a power supply. Your computer only needs to be on to download the reports. The only other thing the computer may need to be on for (depending on settings) is to sync the time between the clock and computer. I believe this occurs when you download the reports, so it doesn't need to be on at other times.

We are returning the unit. After a month of multiple phone calls, Pyramid tech support could not help us get the unit up and running.

The unit has its own AC power supply and yes the computer needs to be on. It is a great product!

It has its own power supply. You must connect to the clock using a PC loaded with the time clock's application software. Connecting to the time clock only downloads employee punches and synchronizes time between your PC and the clock(s). Everything else (running reports, loading employees, etc.) is done through the application and is independent of any installed time clock. You can have several clocks running on the same network downloading to a central PC or server running the application.

No you plug it into a wall plug, and the only time you need to connect it to the computer is when you need to download the information, we have it in the shop, and I go out once a week with a laptop and download the information.

A power supply is not needed. Just plug in the 2 usb plugs to your computer. Power comes from the usb connections. If you don't have 2 usb connectors, try Radio Shack or Best Buy to match the plug needed.

It has and requires an external power supply. I purchased this particular external drive because I needed an external drive that had its own power supply to get files off of an old laptop computer that only had USB 1.0 ports. USB 1.0 ports are old technology do not provide enough power to an external drive. It was by far the easiest way way to recover and save those files to use this self-powered external drive. There were other ways, but this was a simple solution for me. Moral of the story is that a separate power supply is not always a detriment.

This unit is USB powered, does not need to be plugged to an electric outlet. The computer this device it connected to will power the unit using the USB cable.

It works on my sons computer, but if you need power for it the power supply is supplied with it.

Just a power supply, you can download the manuel, I find the manuel offers very basic instructions and as much as I like the quality and ease of operating this unit, the cd rewritable quit on me, but you can make pretty good quality recordings if your skill set is there

Yes, it does. You can use you computer to link it too also, but it always has to have power.

Yes, it comes with a power supply. But I do not recommend this product at all. I have had 2 of them and both motherboards have failed within weeks. i had to return both units. I would recommend you look for something else.

This comes with it's own power supply. I also love this box. It does need amplified speakers for the audio outs. Picture looks like the hdmi is plugged directly into the monitor.

You just need a USB charger to power the unit. The power supply voltage is immaterial.

No power supply needed, just a USB port to plug into on your system. The only issue I have with this product, it keeps disconnecting, it doesn't lock in very tight, so I always loose connection on it, which can get annoying at times. There is no port for a power cable at all.

No power source is required.use the included usb cable to connect the hard drive to the computer.

I gave it to my computer guy. But I remember him saying I needed a new power supply to run it. Sorry I wasn't more help.

No external power supply on this unit. Just a regular 2 prong plug straight from the unit.

Yes, it includes the power supply, but it is not necessary. I have it plugged in to my desktop computer with just the USB connection and it powers it just fine. I cannot speak to the performance of the product on laptops or other portable devices.(edited for a typo)
