You can not power a hard drive directly from, the beaglebone. Period. Full sized 3.5" drives can peak to 2-3A draw when first spinning up. For a 2.5" "laptop" type drive. It would not be unheard of for the drive to need 1-2A at spin up.
So, you need a different enclosure for a hard drive, that powers the drive from a wall plug.
