Hello Joseph and list, yes Joseph you are very much correct. The
Western Digital 1TB is a 3.5 drive and requires a power adapter.
Actually, the 1TB drive is two 500 GB drive in one inclosure. I
have a Western Digital 500 GB drive. It works with the BN just
beautifully. It is almost full so it can be kind of slow at
loading the directories, folders and or files. Therefore, just
be patient and you'll be just fine. As far as the power adapter,
be sure that you plug the power supply in before plugging the
drive into your notetaker. Anyway, the larger drives are great
but for traveling the smaller Western Digital drives can't be
beat. They run on power from the USB port. So, it's really
useful on the go. I have a 160 and a 60 GB drives that I can use
on trips. They can hold lots of music, audio books or other
files that one may need while traveling.

Hi there,
My guess would be yes, since 1 TB (Terabyte i.e. 1000 GB) would
be using
fAT32. I also believe that the era of terabytes has arrived -
soon, we would
see drive sizes in excess of few to even tens of terabytes in the
near
future.
Be aware though that this 1 TB drive might be a 3.5 inch drive -
this means
that, along wsith a USB cable, it requires power supply.
Cheers,
Joseph
