Amperage question.
I want to put my slim USB DVD drive on an USB hub, but my hub did not come with a cable.
I thought oh well, and grabbed a used Nokia charger which didn't work. turns out I need an adapter that is 5V and minimum 2A. I found an adaptor that is 5V but 8A, but I'm not sure if 8A may be bad and kill my drive.
