Largest External Hard Drive Without Power Supply

After buying a new external hard drive, I bought this unit with an external power supply so the hard drive wasn't running off the PC's power supply. I don't have any 3.0 ports on my Toshiba Satellite but the hub and everything connected to it doesn't mind. A very convenient device.

That’s my external power supply for GPU. It is so quiet to let me think it is off.

It holds the laptop, power supply, mouse, microphone and external DVD drive without complaining.  It looks good.

A hub like this, with an external power supply, is the solution to iffy external drive connections. Without the external power supply, other types of USB hubs do not provide enough power to keep external drives up and running--drives connected other, buss-powered hubs often turn off, and become unavailable in Windows. No such issue with this one. This is also impressively well made. The sleek metal enclosure, power switch and USB ports all inspire confidence that this will have a long life. I have the 7-port version of this, and it has worked flawlessly for almost 2 years of constant service. This hub installed on my Windows 10 PC instantly, and every drive I connect to it gets enough power to work well and stay connected and remain visible on my PC.

Excellent External hard drive.

I use it as an external hard drive for photos.

I added a second SATA hard drive to my computer. It did not come with cables. The computer power supply has a number of pigtails with the old white plastic connectors. This cable converts them to the connector used for power on the SATA drive. It works just fine.

Very small hard drive. No additional power supply needed. Using it as my mac time machine hard drive. Couldn't be easier to use. Only possible downside is that it has a proprietary cable that must be used with it. As long as you don't lose the cable, it's no problem.

This is the greatest external hard drive I have ever used. It's only about the size of a deck of cards or a smartphone and only about 1/2 inch thick. It uses USB and gets it's power from the computer without the need of additional power. Holds thousands of pictures and also works as a great backup. Definitely recommended.

A stylish bag with plenty of room for your laptop. external hard drive, assorted power supplies, cables etc. Practically identical to the Calvin Klein Colombian Leather at half the price. I have nothing but praise for this finely crafted case.
