Once thats done u could try a powered USB hub, they are readily available for example:
https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Port...r=8-3&th=1
No luck . Drive directly connected to zero via the usb to micro usb adapter . Removed all other devices . It only detects the sdcard .
Just put an order over a powered usb hub .
spiros@moode:~ $ lsusb
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
spiros@moode:~ $ lsblk
NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
mmcblk0 179:0 0 58.3G 0 disk

└─mmcblk0p2 179:2 0 58G 0 part /
If the drive alone is not recognized then the issue is something other than power since you mentioned that its "a Toshiba external HDD , 1.5 T with its own power supply".
