I'm fine with being capped at 2.0 speed, I was aware of that. What I'm upset about is if the HDD doesn't work because the Wii U can't power it. Then I'll need to find an HDD that has an external power source or I'll have to buy a Y USB cable to power the HDD through BOTH of the Wii U's usb ports.

And then both USB ports are taken by a single device. Just such a hassle. I'll let you guys know tonight if it works or not. =/

you might also try a powered usb hub which costs like $5 ...
maybe that might work if your drive wont power with one cable and you dont want to get a y-cable or a new powered hdd ...
