    Ok so I have this external hard drive (500GB Western Digital) that I swapped with my friend for a 8800 GT and when I got it, the power adapter was in pretty bad shape and it's finally broken.

    I was wondering if the external hard drives the same power adapter as the adapter for my Seagate 1TB seems to work fine with the 500GB and if there was a cheap generic replacement I could buy.

    ~Thanks
