I hope that i am posting this to the correct forum. I did do a search for a similar question, but didn't find anything (although in truth my search query may not have been specific enough, or possibly too general).

My concern is related to a Seagate 3TB Backup Plus external hard drive, which i purchsed in the USA a couple of years ago, and holds a variety of media which i am interested in accessing. I am currently residing in Europe (Czech Republic), and i would like to know if anyone is able to confirm whether or not i can use the included power adapter (input: 100-240v - 50/60Hz / Max. 0.6A) ; output: 12v--1.5A) with just a wall adapter, as opposed to a power converter.

Any help appreciated!

My understanding is that Czech power is 230V at 50Hz, in which case your power adaptor is fine to use.
