USB 3.0 Micro-B cable for external drives

This 1.8 m cable connects a USB 3.0 Type-A host to a Micro-B device such as a portable hard drive. It supports the 3.0 signalling rate for fast data transfer between the drive and the computer. The plug-and-play design requires no driver installation on modern operating systems.

Replaces worn or missing Micro-B leads

Swap this cable in when the original lead is damaged, lost or too short for your desk layout. The 1.8 m length suits typical desktop and laptop setups without excess slack. It is not intended for USB-C devices, proprietary dock connectors or internal motherboard headers.

Questions about this item

What length and connector types does the 1.8 m cable use?

The cable is 1.8 metres long with a USB 3.0 Type-A male plug on one end and a Micro-B male plug on the other.

How do I connect the cable to my external hard drive, and what mistake should I avoid?

Plug the Micro-B end firmly into the drive's USB 3.0 Micro-B port until it clicks; the common error is inserting it only part-way, which falls back to USB 2.0 speeds.
