It should work and even if the drive does not receive enough power nothing will get damaged.

Your media player might not read a NTFS format flie system, USB's are usually FAT32.

You may need to format your drive to FAT32 (NB: FAT32 doesn't support files Bigger than 4GB, meaning you cant copy a file that's bigger than 4GB to it)
