Hardware WiiU HDD + power supply

[tortugarosado]

Just wanted to share the devices i’m using for my modded WiiU because installation is finally working smoothly for me

together costed me about $50. didn’t notify me to format the hard drive in the home menu so i went to system settings to do it manually. i’ve tried a portable hard drive without separate power supply and a USB flash drive for installing games; both devices became corrupted after very brief use on the WiiU. if you want external storage you’re absolutely gonna need the external power supply

2.5" HDD with Y cable would always be a better option than using a 3.5" HDD with a power supply.

oh ok, i didn't know, what I focused on was the external power. also this has Y cable too so
