What kind of USB cable connects to this external HDD? Will I need to buy it separately or does this come with a cable???

Yes, the External Drive comes with the cable that connects your harddrive to any device that supports Fat32 format and also a carry pouch is included.I Hope that this helped you! Happy Holydays

It comes with a short usb cable (maybe 6 inches) that connects it to ps3, 360, or pc.

Mine came with a power cable and usb cable. I used a SATA Drive from an Emachine, and mine works great! Remember, it is just a housing, with the power, usb and cable to hook to the SATA Drive to access the data on the drive. I guess you could use it as an addiotal external drive, depending on what SATA Drive you wish to use in the housing.

Mine came with what was described as a USB 3.0 cable. I don't have a USB 3.0 port, so I plugged it into one of my USB 2 ports, and it works just fine. I hope this is helpful to you.

It comes with the cable that fits the Seagate back up drive and the other end is a standard USB 3 that plugs into your computer. The standard receptacle on my 1 year old HP.

The cable connects your computer directly to the seagate external disk via the USB port.

Sorry I don't exactly remember for sure, but USB cables are usually included with the outside unit you would be connecting. Inside I used sata cables which sata 2 or sata 3 cables are interchangable

It uses a mini USB. I know its not common in things other than portable USB hard drives and hubs, but a cable is included in the box and replacements can be had for cheap.

The drive has a standard USB 3 connector. It comes with a cable that connects with 2 USB connectors compatible with USB 2 or 3 in the computer. Two USB connections are needed on the computer side for power.

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

There is a micro board with a plug which connects to your HDD. There is also a SATA connector that also connects to your HDD. The power comes from a power pack (ie. like your laptop power pack) and included is a USB 2.0 and eSATA cable. Unless you use the eSATA connection, the USB 2.0 is way too slow.I personally rather use a hotswappable docking station (ie the "Plugable" brand)Plugable USB 3.0 SATA III Lay-Flat Hard Drive & SSD Docking Station (Supports UASP and Drives 8TB+)

No, there was no cable with the drive. My cable came with the control card.

I used it as an external drive. Even if you can take the HD out, you still need a sata connecting cable ($8.66 for 2). It has a USB-3 cable which is faster than the conventional USB-2. I wonder why you would pay the price of an external drive and use it as an internal drive, which usually costs less for the same capacity. I bought a WD 4 TB internal drive as D:

Unless your hard drive has some kind of USB 3.0 to the native connection interface this will cable not work. Most newer hard drives have a SATA interface or the case of an external drive, an eSATA interface. You would, at minimum, need an eSATA cable.

Hello! How are you? The connector will come with it when you order it. It is a very good hard drive. It is very thin and light. It is my favorite hard drive.

So this drive doesn't come with any cables. You shouldn't need them if you are using with a Laptop, but for desktop, you would need cables, but you can find them pretty cheap anywhere.

Most (if not all) external drives will work. External drives have a USB out and simply connect the drive to the USB on the laptop. Drive should come with a USB cable.

It's a slide in connection. not a cable. The same as putting the drive into an external enclosure. You don't need to buy anything else if that is what your are asking.
