External Hard Drives

Had one of my 2TB hard drives die and need to replace it. Was wondering if it has to be a powered enclosure, or could it be a usb powered portable drive? Currently both enclosures are powered.

either works fine tbh,but i recommend getting one that has its own power supply

Good to know. I guess I will just stick with another powered drive. Thank you.
