Questions about this item

Does the adapter generate noticeable heat or draw extra power when transferring data at 10Gbps all day?

The adapter only passes USB 3.0 data and power between the Type C host and Type A device, with no active circuitry that would add heat or increase power draw beyond the connected devices themselves.

What must my laptop or phone already have for this adapter to function with OTG?

Your host device needs a USB 3.1 Type C port that supports OTG host mode, and the peripheral must be a standard USB 3.0 Type A device such as a flash drive or hard disk.

Will this let me keep using my older USB 3.0 Type A hard disk with a newer USB 3.1 Type C tablet?

Yes, the adapter connects a USB 3.0 Type A storage device to a USB 3.1 Type C host at up to 10Gbps, but it cannot carry video, audio or other alternate-mode signals.
