works perfect

Exactly what I needed to attach my external Western Digital 4T to my M1 desktop. Better than an adapter. My computer is backing up successfully all day and all night.

It's 2019, and we Apple tech-users are in the throes of yet another "find an adapter" upheaval. If you're like me, you've got 1 (or more) SEAGATE backup hard drives that you need to frequently access. You may have already spent an hour ruminating through the Amazon listings for cables for your new Apple product(s) (USB-C? Alas, Lightning, we hardly knew ye!) to keep your peripherals compatible. I swear, it's a conspiracy against the consumer... I spent HOURS 1 night, looking for about 6 new cables/adapters to integrate my new MacBook Pro (with its x4 USB-C ports ONLY), and this cable is the option I finally settled on (read: "took a chance with"). I figured I'd log back in and give my recommendations on what I got, and (maybe) save you a few hours sleep in your own search. (Maybe it's too late at this point, sorry.) So here's where I need to shut up & just get on with it: > COMPATIBILITY: this product is (in my experience) 100% compatible with a setup which comprises a current model Apple laptop and either a 1TB (or 2TB) "Seagate Backup Plus Slim" backup drive. Moreover, the 12 inch length (from tip-to-tip) is perfect for desktop/tabletop use, as it doesn't leave extra cordage lying around to get tangled up in. It's just long enough to tuck out of sight behind the monitor and/or to pick up the unit for easy plugging & unplugging. > I can't speak to "DURABILITY" yet, because I have only had this a month. I don't travel with it; it's only for my home office use. But I can't imagine having any problems with this piece of equipment, longterm. It should outlast that old factory cable. > STURDINESS: oh yeah. Two thumbs way up. This cable is far superior to the original equipment that came with my Seagate(s). We cable-searchers are really looking for 3 things (aside from length), aren't we? The stylish braided cable jacket, the metal plug housings, and the molded segments that protect the joints (between cable & plug) are all top-notch on this cable. > VALUE: for $7.50, I feel like I got a great deal. I won't be having to find a replacement for this anytime soon! (Oh crap--I've just jinxed us all, haven't I?) I hope you get a similarly good deal. > VERDICT: I have no regrets with this product. I wholeheartedly recommend it to you. I would buy the whole range of adapting cables from this brand (i.e. USB-C to: Lightning/USB/Micro-USB/etc.), if they were available.

These cables are very stiff. I wish they were more flexible. They seem durable, but time will tell. I haven’t noticed any connectivity issues, so that’s good. They did not affect transfer speeds on my external HDD. I was hoping to eek out a bit more transfer speed, but it clocks between 120-130 mbps read/write which is slightly faster than the advertised speeds, but within 1-3 mbps of the OEM cable. All in all a good buy, but it won’t help transfer speeds, and it could be a lot more flexible. It was tough to get this repositioned because of how rigid it is.

This item is well-made, practical, and exceeded my expectations. It adds value and makes everyday use noticeably easier.

Purchased for a computer and laptop to utilize a brand new 4TB HDD that came with a USB 3.0 cord. This one works way better than the provided cord and is a perfect length. Out of curiosity, I tested the cord it came with versus this purchased cord. The cord that came with the HDD got about 30 mbps transfer speed, on average, transferring a large music and video library. This cord got around 80 mbps and as high as 98 mbps. Obviously there are other factors to consider but the cord really increased the transfer speed dramatically.

The read/write speed on this cable is great and compatible with standard external hard drive connectors. It is just plug and play and even lets you load the drive from your phone for easy back-up of items on your phone.

Que cumpre o que promete e a qualidade é absurda de boa.

Really good! worth the cost!

El cable es un producto muy útiles para conectar discos duros externos a mí computadora a través del puerto USB C de alta velocidad, es muy resistente y soporta las flexiones y torciones.

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.
