    USB is intelligent. The device should draw as much current as it asks for. If the device is not detecting any host to do any data transfer with, then it is probably idling at lowest unit power load. I would bet it's not bad for it in any way. As long as that power brick lives up to the standard.

      In theory, just getting current does nothing. It has to be rewritten. It uses hot electron tunneling.

      However, I recently found an mp3-player I hadn't used since longer than 2017 on the bottom of a drawer. It was stored without battery. I put an AAA battery in and it played the stored music just fine.

      Older lithography holds charge longer; the pursuit of more storage at cheaper prices results in engineering sacrifices to make it happen.

              If people could download a house they absolutely would.

                    Nothing at all.

                    The power supply only puts 5V on the appropriate pins, just like a computer would. Since there is no computer, the drive will do nothing. Even if the power supply has USB-power delivery it won’t actually supply a higher voltage until the device asks for it, and this device won’t.

                      I don't know for sure but I think if all devices are to spec, nothing happens.

                        Older devices also stored fewer bits per well. It's much easier for the data to get corrupted when the difference in voltage between two values is smaller.

                          Is that part of the USB standard or just common with many devices?

                            Usb is 5v standard, it can negotiate something else, then it's called usb-pd

                              It's part of the standard. It's slightly different for each USB verision. USB 2.0 starts at 100mA at 5V and the device can negotiate up to 500mA, if the host can deliver.
