I wanna connect a hard drive rated at 5volts and 550 miliamps to the raspberry pi 4. The power supply im using for the pi is a mobile charger rated at 5 volts and 4 amps. No device is connected to the pi except for an ethernet cable and the previously mentioned hard drive.
Do I need a separate power supply for the hard disk itself or will the pi be able to power the drive through a USB to SATA adapter ?
