My question is about external memory, and USB drives.
About six, or more, months ago, I made the mistake of trying to add a Western Digital 1 TerraByte, usb-powered, external memory, to my home computer. To be polite, it was a "disaster". Everytime I plugged in the drive, it shut down (crashed) my desk-top home, computer. If I plugged in the drive, the computer power would NOT turn on.
When I returned the drive, a computer person suggested that, if I wanted to add external memory, that I buy a drive, where the power comes from a power-strip, or wall outlet. The computer person told me that the drive, which was USB-compatable, drew too much power, from the computer.
Now, I have found a Toshiba 500 GB external drive, with USB-compatability, for a very good price. I just dont know if its power can come from a wall outlet.
If I want such an external memory drive, which is USB-Compatable, but which draws power NOT from computer, but from power CORD, HOW, WHERE, and WHAT should I look for, in such a memory device.
In case anyone is interested, my O.S. is Windows XP, with an 8-port, external, USB hub.
Any suggestions?
