CableCreation Short Micro B to USB C Hard Drive Cable 0.3m, USB 3.1 Type C to Micro B Cord 10Gbps, USB C to External Hard Drive Cable for MacBook Pro Air Galaxy S5 My Passport Elements etc

Solid construction, feel very sturdy and work well. As the cable is short they don't take up much space in a laptop bag or similar. If you have a Macbook or Macbrook Pro a couple of these or something similar is essential and these are excellent value.

An excellent cable, and well built. This cable is only long enough to connect your external hard drive along site your laptop. This suits me! If you need it further away get a longer cable.

Having recently invested in a new MacBook Pro I wanted to be able to keep my existing USB Hard Drives - all 8TB of them, whilst being able to connect them to the USB-C ports on the MacBook. This cable does the job perfectly, works as expected and the faster data transfer speeds are extremely impressive. Will definitely be buying more!

Got a new MacBook Pro, needed a cable for all my moblie Samsung hard drives (Micro USB-B type connector) so I can connect them to the USB-C only laptop. The cable is of decent quality and packaging was nice. Works well with all my hard drives. Great! £8 is a little steep to be honest, considering the cable is very short, that's why no 5 stars. £5 would be perfect.

If there was ever a reason to hate apple even more, is replacing everything with USB-C port in their new laptops. I understand that they want to be the "market leaders" and "innovators" of computer technology but when the world has not even begun to make use of USB-C ports, it would be nice to provide us with a transition period. Give us some time to lub ourselves up instead of shoving it in us! As a professional designer the one thing I hate most is the fact that the field I work in worship apple, as a cult, as a religion, and totally disregard its faults, limitations and arrogance. This forced me to upgrade to the new macbook when my previous laptop became too old to function, which has forced me to retire ALL my WB harddrive cables and replace them with these ones. I had the apple doggle but by adding another connection between the harddrive and the laptop, it slows down the transfer and loading speed. Additionally, there is a much higher chance of disconnection with the doggle and it's the last thing you want to happen when transferring massive amount of files. So despite how much I hate Apple's USB-C dictatorship, I do like this cable because it is a perfect solution to the harddrive problem apple has caused.

It does the work I bought it for: to connect an external drive with my MacBook 12 inches which only has a usb-c port. It works perfectly fine both in reading and writing speeds and with my time machine back-up program. Highly recommended if you don't want to ditch your old external hard drive.

This cable is the best way to connect an external hard drive to a Macbok Pro. Better than all dongles and hubs, this cable works like a charm.

I'm one of the unfortunate few who have fallen victims to Apple's new direction of removing every port they can think of, requiring you buy an overpriced dongle from them at £30+ a shot. Thankfully this cable has ended one of their monopolies. The cable is sturdy, connects well, and manages all the USB 3.1 data I can chuck at it. I highly recommend it as an alternative to a dongle.

Este cable USB 3.1 a USB Tipo C es ideal para conectar discos duros a equipos con conexión USB C o Thunderbolt 3 como los nuevos macbook pro. La transferencia de archivos es muchísimo más rápida que con un usb normal. la longitud de este cable es ideal para colocar el disco externo junto al ordenador y la calidad de construcción es excelente.

I lost the cable for my WD hard drive and ordered this one as a replacement so I could use it on my Mac more easier and it works great, I’ve used it on Mac and on windows and it’s worked on both, transferring on and off the hard drive is pretty fast as well

Çok iyi

Mac用のHDD接続のために購入。問題なく使える。

I'm comparing 3 products available on amazon 1) Congo USB A to TYPE C 2) QZ USB A to TYPE C 3) Cablescreation Micro B to TYPE C (Current) My machine: Intel NUC i7 10th gen, it has Thunderbolt 4 with updated drivers and firmware. My HDD: WD 4TB My Passport external USB. It is highly fragmented to imitate real life scenario No other processes or activities were running in my device at the time of test. I did enable optimize for performance under devmgmt.msc > Disk Drives > Policies. Ranking best products based on current test. 1) QZ 2) Cablescreation(This is a direct connection and it should be rank 1, but even I'm confused) 3) Conco 4) Stock cable that comes with WD HDD. Note: I do get faster speeds on each of these products on other drives, but I used a worst case scenario. Product Review: QZ: Works provides better speeds compared to stock-only usb cable connection. Seems Sturdy, wire is thick, and hard to bend, less flexible. Works better when using type A to Type C converter, but seems like QZ which is also USB 3.1 beats this product by minor difference This should be preferred when possible, as it won't block any ports on cabinet's panel. Issues: minor reduction in speeds when compared to QZ type A to Type C converter. Wire is thick, so it may be prone to breakage, and it won't stay relaxed when bent, it likes to stay straight, so have to adjust HDD distance accordingly Costly compared to the type A to Type C converter. But then there's quality plastic housing that's used. Edit: New CrystalDiskMark result added. Cable is indeed capable of providing optimal performance.
