Hello, on my TV I have 2 USB ports (5V 0.5A) and USB HDD (5V 1A) and I would like to know what the difference is between these two??

Thank you in advance.

Hello,

The USB HDD on your TV delivers 1A output, to power external drives that are more demanding than simple USB flash drives.

Have a nice day!

Technically, yes.

Port 1A can accommodate self-powered external hard drives, while the others cannot.

That the hard drive is powered via USB and does not require an additional power outlet... or multiple USB ports.
