There are complaints about the USB cable being too short. Can somebody tell me the actual length? Thanks.

I have this exact hard drive and my cable, that came with it, is roughly 15 inches long.

I have two of them and the USB cables are about 20 inches long, certainly enough.

On my Toshiba Canvio the USB cable from end to end is a little over 17 inches long.Yes i have purchased other drives that had longer USB cables but i dont have any problens plugging in my Toshiba to my desktop or any other device. Dont know if 17 inches is standard for this device, hope this helped.

I haven't measured mine as it works fine in my application, but it can't be more than 3 or 4" long I don't think. I use mine to go from a front panel USB plug on my car stereo to an ipod in a small compartment just above the USB plug.

I am not sure as I have so many USB cables but the one in the package, as I haven't used this drive yet is 16" long - more than adequate. I have no problems. But I also tend to only carry one cord and use it on the various devices.

very Tip of connector to other connector tip measured 21.5 inches. Be careful if you replace this cable. Make sure if you do that you replace it with a USB 3.0 cable (blue plastic visible inside the connector) USB 3.0 and 2.0 cables are different! THis is the cable that came with a NEW sealed original package (from amazon) toshiba 2TB canvio connect portable drive. (red) recieved 5 aug 2014.

Hi, Thank you for the email inquiry and interest. The USB cord provided is about 40 inches. As for the extension, your guess is as good as ours; it would be hard to second guess electronics, and such things depend on your computer's USB hubs and your extension cord. Some equipment prefers to be connected to the main USB in rear of PC tower and not on the auxiliary plugs. - You are welcome to make your purchase and try it, if it does not work, we would be happy to accept a return and a FULL refund. Thank you, - The AramediA Support Team

The answer has nothing to do directly with the device. The USB standard specifies a maximum length of 5 meters. Cables longer than 2 meters will cause problems with some devices. To go longer that 5 meters you need a "signal booster" such as a powered USB hub.

The cable is around 6' long. More than adaquete to reach from the far side of a typical desk to the other side. I have my laptop on the right of my desk and have the headphone cable snake to the middle left, tucked behind my keyboard and there is plenty of slack. On a whim, I tried with a USB extension cable and it works fine if you have need to extend the length.

I haven't measured the USB. All I know is that it's working fine for me, ever since I bought it.

It's pretty short. Just measured mine and the cable is roughly 38" long and the plug adds another 1.5-2 inches roughly. I personally wish it was longer, but I just have mine sitting on a nightstand so it works ok.

The long cable is 180 inches or 15 feet long (not 16 feet). The short cable is 10 inches on the ultimate extension. The USB ultimate cable is 45 inches long (not 3 feet).

It is about 3 and a half feet long. However, it is a plain, standard USB cable, male on both ends, so that if you need a longer cable they are cheap and easy to find.

It is short. Maybe 3 feet. It also wouldn't charge my phone, but the charger with one of the numerous, longer micro usb cables I had lying around works great.

I looked for the length of the cord and didn't find it. It is approximately 3 feet. It's a good mouse for the price, you could use a usb cable extender. Sorry I couldn't give you exactly what you wanted.

Hi Riffster - the AC cord is approximately 60-65" long and the USB cord is approximately 45" long.Hope this helps.

About 3 to 4 feet. You can add a USB extension cord if you need it longer.. I've been very happy with mine.

I was asked by Amazon to respond to a question:Unfortunately I can't measure the cable length on mine. It quit working after just a couple of months and is now in a landfill somewhere.

looks to be about 6 feet and it's USB, so you could buy a USB extension cord.

It seems like a mini-usb, but I am not sure if it is a standard. I have a pile of the smallish usb cables that all seem unique. I have wondered why there isn't a standard. Sorry I can't be more accurate.

USB length is limited but only now for less then a week, but I am for the full speed characteristics of the connection. This application is not using but only a portion of the full speed the USB cable is rated for, therefore the lengthof the cable is not an issue. I have been using one in an RV and I am throughly impressed with the capability it is showing me.
