All others I had come across previously ran for upwards of $1000. I'm primarily a Linux user and was fully expecting to do low-level mounting and use of the mnt GNU utility at minimum to get it to work, and and most might even need to custom develop my own driver software as it didn't list Linux as a supported OS. Boy was I surprised when I hooked it into my USB port and put in a tape it popped right up in my Nautilus filesystem GUI! I didn't even have to mount it or partition it, it just worked! Super pleased and will definitely continue with this company, and would happily recommend to anyone wanting to archive their data on magnet tapes, be it industrial or personal Review: Does not come with power supply, does not include that info in description. - My problem is not with the drive itself but with the seller. No where in the description does it say that this drive does not come with a power supply. It comes with a cable that has two USB connections to power the unit via USB but that does not work on my Dell Server. I bought this through my company with a PO and now I have to pay for a power supply out of my own money. ## Features - UPC: 712880187824 - Weight: 2.200 lbs - 8782-RDX - Storage Capacity: Drive Dock - Host Interface: USB 3.0 ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00QND1EIK | | Best Sellers Rank | #657 in External Hard Drives | | Brand | Tandberg | | Color | Black | | Customer Reviews | 3.7 3.7 out of 5 stars (11) | | Date First Available | December 6, 2014 | | Flash Memory Size | 2 | | Hard Drive | 500 GB | | Hard Drive Interface | USB 3.0 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Dimensions LxWxH | 4.33 x 7.01 x 2.05 inches | | Item Weight | 1.36 pounds | | Item model number | 8782-RDX | | Manufacturer | Tandberg Data Corporation | | Product Dimensions | 4.33 x 7.01 x 2.05 inches | | Series | 8782-RDX | ## Images ![Data RDX QuikStor Drive Dock External - Black 8782-RDX - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81za07-+e+L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works straight out of the box, even on Linux! *by M***L on November 11, 2021* I had been searching for some time for an affordable magnet-tape option for archiving family photos and documents.

No where in the description does it say that this drive does not come with a power supply. It comes with a cable that has two USB connections to power the unit via USB but that does not work on my Dell Server. I bought this through my company with a PO and now I have to pay for a power supply out of my own money. ### ⭐⭐⭐ No power cable included *by K***P on January 22, 2024* I bought this in 2024 to replace an older model Tandberg RDX Quikstor that I'd originally installed in 2014. So I'm please that the old one gave me 9.5 years of use before it died. However, this unit does not come with a power cable. Instead, they want you to use two USB ports, and due to the Y at the end of the cable the ports *need* to be near each other. Unfortunately all of our Dell servers only have 2 USB ports in the back, and we need to use one of those for the KVM switch (as it needs to be near the VGA adapter). The unit has a port for a power cable, there's just no power cable included. I wish the description had stated this. If you don't have two available USB ports in close proximity to each other, this is not the unit for you unless you find a power cable. If I had two free USB ports, or if they had included a power cable, I'd rate these with 5 stars. But since I have to go through the headache of having to find a way to power this thing, I'm only giving it 3 stars. ## Frequently Bought Together - Tandberg Data RDX QuikStor Drive Dock External - Black 8782-RDX - Tandberg RDX QuikStor - RDX X 1-2 TB - Storage Media, Black (8731-RDX) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/19012965-data-rdx-quikstor-drive-dock-external-black-8782-rdx](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/19012965-data-rdx-quikstor-drive-dock-external-black-8782-rdx) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-05-08*
