hi guys,
could anyone recommend a decent portable external (2.5") drive that works reliably through the usb power source? i was looking a WD Passports but apparently the drive requires more juice than the average usb port supplies causing failures...
i really like the simplicity of not needing a power cable so it'd be great if you could recommend![Smile :) :)](/styles/default/xenforo/vbSmilies/Normal/smile.gif)
my father in law has a sweet philips portable drive (the usb cable wraps around the ridge and is very neat and compact, but that seldom works without the AC power![Frown :( :(](/styles/default/xenforo/vbSmilies/Normal/frown.gif)
