[QUOTE="jeallen01, post: 1128945, member: 176704"] Addition to Post 24: something from this [URL='https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2510209.m570.l1313&_nkw=USB+2.0+Power+Enhancer+1+male+2+female&_sacat=0']page[/URL] might be suitable, but you may need a further adapter from that to the external HDD/SSD enclosure as most of those are now micro USB. OTOH, might have to come from China as they are a bit thin on the ground in the UK nowadays! Also, some of the older smallish capacity HDDs are quite thick (12.5mm or so) and may not fit the currently available cases (had to tape my own case together!). As for using an SSD to reduce the power required - would need to check the actual power requirement and might be quite a bit more expensive than an equivent size HDD, especially if you get a large capacity one.
