Hi,
Problem is as in title, I have one 3.0 500GB Toshiba HDD and I want to connect it to a single USB 2.0 slot. However, when I do this, the disk will stop and start again every 5 to 20 seconds with a hearable beep playing when it happens. Also to note that the light on top when connected to a USB 2.0 port is white but when connected to a 3.0 USB port it is blue (white probably signaling lack of power).
This is to connect to my wii U so USB drivers, OS and updates are kinda irrelevant but Im not here to ask for Wii U help, all I want is some kind of hardware to bring more power to the drive all while letting it be plugged in that 2.0 slot in the console.
Thanks.
