iPad (8th Gen) and WD My Passport SSD 1TB
I have an iPad 8th gen (128GB WiFi) and a WD My Passport SSD 1TB.
I chatted with apple support and they recommended I get the Lightning to USB 3 Camera Adapter because the SSD is bus powered and I need more power. So I did.
I plugged the adapter into the iPad, the lightning power cord into the lightning port on the adapter, and the WD My Passport SSD into the USB-A port. The iPad shows it is connected to power.
The WD My Passport SSD will sometime connect but then I am getting an error saying:
"Cannot Use Accessory
My Passport 264F: This accessory requires too much power."
That's the whole point of this adapter and it's recommended on apple.com for the same reason.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
