Hacking Question can you USB load while undocked?

[moto4mods]

Just curious, was reading some threads about the switch, reading all the "I USB load" comments, and asked myself "can you even USB load undocked?" Seeing as it's a portable device, carrying an HDD around would be a hassle yes, but is it even possible to USB load with just the switch and a USB C OTG cable? Could it power an HDD or only flash drives?

Yes you can with the correct cable, and yes you can use hard drives.
