what comes in the box? Specifically is there a USB 3 cable? What type of connector is required?

I'm pretty sure there was. THis is pretty typical when purchasing a USB-capable device - no matter what it is.

usb 3 cable is included. Just simple USB port - it's compatible with usb 2 as well

It comes with a USB 3.0 cable about 2 feet long. The end of the cable that plugs into the drive has a 2 part special USB 3.0 connector. (this connector is flat and when it is plugged in it looks just like a USB 2.0 connector). The other end of the cable that plugs into the computer looks just like a USB 2.0 connector. I presume that this is for backward compatibility to USB 2.0 only ports. I can confirm that the cable and drive work on both USB 2.0 and 3.0 ports. It will just transfer a lot faster on a USB 3.0 port.

Yes there is a USB 3 cable that one end goes in ur computer the other in the hard drive. Nothing else is required as long as ur laptop or computer has the part where u can connect a usb cord.

It does come with a cable but I didn't pay attention to whether it was a 2.0 or a 3.0 USB because as soon as I plugged it in, it turned on then off and then I quickly packed everything back and returned the defective product. Sorry I couldn't provide you with the info you needed.

Yes, it comes with a (short) cable. Well, the computer end of the cable is the same for USB 2.0 and 3.0

Marcel, it has been a few months since I bought (then returned) the unit. I recall it having a USB cable. Richard

It's the USB 3.0 plug. It should be an inch long black chord with 2 wires connecting straight to those USB ports.

This comes with a USB 3 Cable. I've enjoyed it so far (but using it on a USB 2 port, I bought a USB 3 device to futureproof.)

Mine came with a cable for the 3.0 header and one that just plugged into a spare port if you don't have the header. I didn't try it, but I assume that the USB cable just turns the device into a powered hub.

It came with an a-b usb usb 2 cable. I mounted it high on one wall so needed an extension. I did buy a usb extension cable from BlueRigger (also through amazon.com). I hope this helps.

USB 2.0 cable is not included. I ordered an Amazon Basics cable with mine. It works flawlessly.

It should come with a USB cable. There may have been an error in packaging yours.

I'm sorry, we have not used the USB cable yet. we are waiting to connect it when we upgrade our computer first.

Comes with the appropriate cable to utilize the USB 2.0 interface. I am currently using it that way now. Works fine.

A USB 3.0 cable comes with the drive. It is my understanding that USB 3.0 is backwards compatible, but I have USB 3.0 on my machine and have not checked that.

It does not come with a USB cable. I used an existing cable since I had plenty lying around.
