Hi All,

My Buffalo Ministation TurboUSB Portable Hard Drive came with two cables.  One is the standard USB, the other has a power connection on one end and a USB connector on the other.  The device will run with only the standard USB.  What is the other cable?

USB 2.0 has power on the port.  If you are using USB 1.1 or 1.0 you will need both connected to power the drive.
