I am looking for some sort of usb psu which is small and descreet as i have a 2.5" hdd caddie to use with my dvd recorder which is not able to recieve enough power from the single usb port.The caddie itself has only a usb connection and no power but does have a usb lead with 2 connectors.I did think of getting a usb hub but want something smaller.

Can anyone recommend me some sort of thing to get over this problem?

Thanks i will certainly have a look for one of these.

Also will one of those plug in the wall usb chargers do the job and does it matter how many mili amps it has?

i don`t think i have seen one of those

It is a 5V 1000mA USB MP3 Power Supply.

Well i bought the 5V 1000mA USB MP3 Power Supply and it works great.I use it just to power up the drive and then the dvd recorder usb drive has enough power to run it from there.

Thanks for all the info.

lol @ DR_D

You obviously misinterpreted my post,it is a standalone dvd recorder with a usb port to which the 2.5 caddie is connected to.
