I ran across this: http://www.e-shop.gr/show_per.phtml?id=PER.505774&sid=1
It's great to be able to plug any HD or optical media with just a USB cable so I am really considering buy one.
Two questions for anyone who may know:
1)Is it completely safe for the HD to use it with such cable?
2)This product (on contrary with others I've seen in newegg) doesn't have an external power source, USB is the only option. Would a USB port be capable of providing enough power for HDs? Even a 2TB one? Or it's completely irrelevant?
Thanks,
K.
