He probably mean a drive with its own power supply . imo the prublem with usb powered drives is thier power usage sometimes they overload a perfectly on spec usb port .
That problem does not exist with self powered drives . I would just buy any . But ive would imediatly unistall all kinds of bundled software and spam and extra parttions and reformat the whole thing to one single partition . So sometimes a no name product can be better . many brand name drives and usb sticks has all kinds of crap ware that in some cases are hard to truly get rid off . -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.
