iMBAPrice USB 3.0 A to Micro B Cable 10ft Black

SKU CH-W4VZ-49R15

Ten-foot USB 3.0 cable with Micro-B connector transfers data at 5 Gbps and charges compatible WD and Seagate external drives

  • 10-foot length gives flexible placement for external drives
  • USB 3.0 interface supports 5 Gbps transfer speed
  • Micro-B connector fits WD My Passport Essential WDCA042RNN and Seagate drives
  • Black cable blends with common drive enclosures

What this cable connects

This 10-foot USB 3.0 A to Micro B cable links compatible external hard drives such as WD My Passport Essential and Seagate models to a host computer. It supports both data transfer and charging functions. The black cable suits users who need a longer reach for desktop or laptop setups.

Thermals noise and power draw

As a passive cable it generates no audible noise and adds no measurable heat to the system. Power delivery follows the USB 3.0 specification so connected drives draw only what the host port provides. No external power adapter is required for normal operation.

Questions about this item

How do I plug the USB 3.0 A to Micro B cable into my WD My Passport Essential WDCA042RNN, and what step do people often miss?

Insert the Micro B connector fully until it clicks; the wider USB 3.0 Micro B port on the drive has a second section that must seat completely or the link will fall back to 2.0 speeds.

When should I replace this 10-foot cable if I use it daily with my Seagate external hard drive?

Replace it if the connectors feel loose, the sheath shows kinks near the ends, or transfer rates drop below the rated 5 Gbps during large file moves.
