The limitation is not what kind of card you plug in the Libretto. It is
how much power the Libretto can give the card. The card can only get
500ma from the Libretto, so, assuming it uses absolutely no power
itself, it can only pass 500ma through to your HD - not enough to spin
up the HD in 99% of all cases.
