No extra items are required, both the USB cable and AC adapter are included with the Hard Drive.

It came with standard 4 prong connector. If you need another kind then you will need an adaptor.

These cables are readily found on Amazon and elsewhere. It won't let me post a link, but if you search for usb power cable on Amazon you'll find lots of options at low prices, incl one from BiXPower.

there's two things you need to plug in - the power adapter and the usb cable. The usb cable it uses is a regular mini-usb (like the kind old blackberries used)

It is called: USB type A to USB type B cable. I would suggest a six foot cable.

Just the power supply cable. If you are wanting a HD cable, you'll need to buy that separately.

power is run thru cat 5 connection, but you may need power supply depending on length of cable

As far as I know you would just need an outlet adapter. I've read that'll be all you need. Hope that helps!

My first thought would be to contact the manufacturer. If they say you can use a standard power cord, then buy it locally.

You could use a battery pack from Anker. All that's needed is the right connecting cable to plug into the coupler. I believe the correct power cable connector is 5.5mm OD x 2.1mm ID.

Not exactly sure about your question. EVERY drive will need both a power cable and a data cable.

You need to buy a 12 volt DC power supply with a mini USB ending you can get it from the same company

You can use the 8 pin power cable if you have it available the one provided is just an adapter if your power supply doesn't have 8 pin connectors.

As far as I can tell it is a fully spec USB cable not one of the power only types. It should work fine.

Any 110VAC or 12VDC / USB adapter will work quite well. They are available at almost any big box store.

A picopsu or similar. Basically the power supply needed is the kind that is directly connected to the 20/24 pin atx header. And sits on the plug itself. Google for picopsu and you will find it. Picopsu is 12vdc native. So if you need to run it from you house then a power supply at 12v will be required.
