It should, as long as you have a way of powering it.

I would be careful with a 1TB HDD. If you can power it externally from the mains do that. Also the USB2 interface has a max transfer or 480Mbps / 60MBps. Its reliant on your PC actually caching the transferred data fast enough, so you might only see about 30MBps in practice, but yeah, thats the deal.

Correct, but do you have the correct equipment? Even if you did, your computer might not be fast enough to write to the disk after passing through the cache.
