USB C to Micro B Cable 1ft, 2 Pack, Black, Gray | Nylon Braided, USB 3.1 Gen 1, 5Gbps Data Sync, Compatible with SSD, Macbook, To-shiba Canvio, Galaxy S5 Note 3

Works very well for the external hard drive.

Really durable charger. Hard to find these days

Grabbed this cable for a 2.5" hard drive I have that came with a USB-A to Micro 3.0 cable. I'd been using an adaptor to connect it to my MacBook Pro but this cable allows me to do so without the need for the additional adaptor. The construction seems sturdy and well-made. It's just 1ft long, so it doesn't take up a lot of space if you travel with the drive, though it does mean keeping it close-by when in-use. Data transfer is fast and simple, with the cable allowing the laptop to supply power to the drive. Overall it's the perfect solution to the problem I was looking to solve and a great little cable for connecting all the things.

I have a Western Digital EasyStore 4TB HD, and didn't like the inconvenience of having to find a USB A to USB C adapter to use the hard drive each time. I wasn't sure if they made a USB C replacement, so after a quick search, I found a bunch of cables, some quite pricey. Being a world-class cheap ass, I found this and read the reviews, and at about $6, I decided to roll the dice. This cord has a braided exterior, the plugs look to be good quality, and despite reading a couple reviews about the plug being very tight/very hard to plug in, mine fit just fine - snug, but with no forcing or extra effort required (at least for what I was using - the WD EasyStore HD and my MacBook Air and MacBook Pro.) This cord is a great value, I'd buy this before I'd spend 2-3X as much on another cord. This works fine, fits fine, and there is no drop in speed from the HD.

The connection jumps on and off in the middle of task. Love all the ports.

First, I hate these micro B connections. Always have. Almost seemed proprietary, I see them so rarely. Unfortunately, I have several bus-powered drives that are otherwise solid SSD's; but all have these connectors that ended in a standard USB-A connector on the other end. These cables immediately made these drives relevant again. Haven't done speed tests; but in transferring almost a thousand of my daughter's photos and videos I had temporarily stored on my Mac Studio onto one of the drives using the USB-C cable (so my daughter can use them on her USB-C only MacBook Air), it only took a few minutes to move everything over. And now she has her own bus-powered SSD with the C connector she needs. Very pleased.

My new computer has only USB-C. I plugged my external hard drive into the expander using the USB-A cable it came with years ago. The drive seemed sluggish at best compared to the last time I used it. I figured if I got a USB-C cable for it, it would be faster and make my life easier. Testing showed it is so much faster than plugging this into a spare USB-A plug. With USB-A, my external drive seems sluggish, but plug it into a true USB-C, port and it screams.

These cords are a little bit stiff and a little bit short but if you are looking for a short cord that is tough and doesn't seem like it is going to get damaged easily, this is the one. It's worked great with my seagate hard drives. It's nice to have this so I don't have to use an adaptor to connect to my macbook since my hard drive originally came with a normal USB cord. Have used this with several hard drives and have been using it for quite awhile. About a year with no problems.

Muy buen producto y muy económico tomando en cuenta que el tamaño del cable es bastante largo. La funda de tela lo protege mucho

The cable is of really good build, and the connector are of a very good fit, they don't wobble around like the original cable, the braid is also of good quality, but I thought I bought a 1 meter cable and received the 300mm cable, but that must of been my fault. Good quality product very happy with it.

More flexible and thinner than typical USB3 cable

Tras una actualización de equipos y al cambiar las entradas usb por tipo c, este paquete de 2 cables nos ayúdo mucho a no detener el flujo de trabajo por falta de adaptadores. Hasta ahora han funcionado bien y tienen buena velocidad de transferencia para los discos externos. Se ven de buena calidad

acerte!!! con esta compra, estupendo cable de usb C a micro 3.0, para conectar un disco portatil al PC, transmision de datos a buena velocidad. Buena compra!!
