I have a USB3 external hard drive I only want to use for backup purposes. It gets power from a mains adapter. My question is whether is it sensible to use a timer plug to have it run between the hours it would be backing up and then use the timer to shut it off afterwards. Obviously there would need to be enough spare time allocated before and after to allow data to write completely, but is any damage likely to occur by removing power by timer plug every day, presuming there is no data transfer in progress?
