Haven't had any problem with the latest WD passport drive here either. Works great. I love the single usb cable with no external power needed. And the convenience of not having to power off a drive when I finish playing.

Does the 1tb drive use a seperate Power supply ?
I don't want a drive with a seperate power supply and for the meantime I'm using 320gb WD passport drive but I don't mind upgrading as long as the drive runs on USB power reliably

It does have it's own power supply, or atleast mine does, I don't believe there is a 1tb (as of yet) that runs on USB power. The ones that run on USB power are 1.25 drives (alot smaller than the 3.5 we're used to)
