power out
if I unplug it or power goes out would it affect my saved data?
If you're transferring files when it happens, definitely do the transfer again as that might corrupt the files. There is always potential that cutting the power to an external drive might corrupt data. The safest thing to do is to unmount the drive prior to removing the power supply. Not much you can do with the power going out unless you have it plugged into a battery backup system.
