QuestionAlternative power source?I see that this drive is powered via 12v power supply. Can it possibly also power itself via USB 3 only, without requiring that the power supply be attached? That would allow max portability when used with laptop, but allow it with power source attached, to utilize USB 2 for data, such as with a WDTV Live unit
Asked 10 years ago by Bob.
- Answer I believe the answer is no. I'm not 100% sure but when I originally hooked it up to a power strip. My Xbox one wasn't recognizing it and that's when I noticed that I had accidently switched off the power strip. The internals run at a faster speed than a passport style external hardrive therefore it needs the power to tun it and that just can't be achieved with just the USB.

QuestionIs this drive 5400rpm or 7200rpm?Is this drive 5400rpm or 7200rpm?
Asked 11 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer This drive only runs at 5400 rpms. Western Digital does have other drives that run at 7200 but the price will be higher. One good rule of thumb when looking at these external drives (if it does not say 7200 rpm in the description then it most likely has a 5400 rpm drive inside).

QuestionWhy is the drive so slow??? The specs say 640 per second. The others are 5,000 per second. 640 is snail pace. Why would anyone want to buy this slow thing? Your 8 TB says 625.
