[QUOTE]The powersupply is probably a switchmode type, so it doesn't have to be big to deliver the needed power.Originally Posted by Tom0000
Is it a 2,5" drive ? Since most 2,5" external harddisc drives with can be fed from a laptops usb port, I guess it would work. A 3,5" drive ? Probably not.I see I have 3.3V in router (not 5V). The samsung 80G hard drive uses 2.5W for 5V . Is it possible to use it and use internal usb for use it inside with powering over usb ?
