Dear Folks, This is Joseph. Well, Don is correct. My exact situation is this. My friend gave me a Toshiba 30 GB hard drive. She had the normal USB cable that connects to it, plus a USB cable that connects to the power port. I'm using this particularly weard adapter with my Passport since the voltage is same. I've wondered about this adapter myself when I got it. This kind of adapter is pretty rare. I wuld lke to apologize if I made some invalid points here (I was just describing what mhy situation was).
