I'd avoid any 'self powered' USB drives

Not sure why you don't like them, but they sure have worked for me.
Not having to drag the miserable wall wart/cord around is fantastic.
Course I'm only a sample of one, but my lil 80G drive has worked on
everything I've ever plugged it into and it even fits in my pocket...


I say...
go with whatever works for you.

Just in general there would be less likelihood of problems
with a device that had it's own power source.

Especially if the machine has a lot of USB devices
