USB 3.0 Type-A to Micro-B Hard Drive Cable, Black, 1m or 2m

USB 3.0 Type-A to Micro-B Cable for External Hard Drives

This USB 3.0 Type-A to Micro-B hard drive cable connects a compatible external drive or enclosure to a computer with a USB-A port. It uses a USB-A male plug at the host end and the wide, two-part USB 3.0 Micro-B male connector at the drive end. Choose a black 1m or 2m cable to suit your desktop layout.

SuperSpeed USB connectivity for backups and file transfer

USB 3.0 supports a signaling rate of up to 5Gbps. A USB 3.0 host and a compatible USB 3.0 drive are required for SuperSpeed operation; actual file-transfer speed also depends on the storage device, host controller and workload. Use this connection for everyday backups, file access and transfers to an external drive.

Tinned-copper conductors and molded connectors

Tinned-copper conductors and molded connector housings provide a practical cable construction for regular drive connections. The black cable keeps desktop wiring simple, with two available lengths to place the drive close to the computer or farther along the desk.

Select the correct Micro-B connector and cable length

The USB 3.0 Type-A to Micro-B cable is intended for external drives and enclosures fitted with the wide USB 3.0 Micro-B port. This connector differs from the narrower Micro-USB connector commonly used on older phones. Select 1m or 2m from the length menu; each purchase contains one cable, and 1m is the default option.
