Re: Hard drive issues

is the disk a full size "brick" or a smaller 2.5 inche size ? if its a brick, you would need a laptop with usb 3 or 3.1 to get enough power to run it, which is why most of them have a external psu. a usb3 "portable" drive also uses a ton of power, id be recommending a mains power...

was the quietest day in Wellington (New Zealands Capital) that I can ever remember
