I had a problem getting my WD My Passport external drive to work with my PowerBook G4. I finally found a comment on-line that the problem was that the G4 USB port did not supply enough current for the Passport. This cable allows me to get power from both USB ports and seems to work fine. I had to buy an extra mini USB to micro USB adapter (would be nice if there was a micro USB version of the cable) and the cords are a little short but they do work.

This cable replaced the one that came with my external hard drive. The flimsy cable that came with my hard drive was not functioning so I thought I had lost everything on my external hard drive. I was saved by this new cable. It is very obviously much sturdier than my original cable and no doubt it will last longer.

Needed the Y-cable to power my new Toshiba external hard drive. No one had what I needed...Not Apple, not Radio Shack, no one. Cables to Go had exactly the right cable at the right length at the right price. Awesome!

Great cable for use on removable HD on a 17" Powerbook except the arms of the Y aren't long enough to stretch across both sides of the laptop where the two USB ports are. I would also be interested in a micro USB Y cable for the same application.

Good cable but the arms of the "Y" are too short. They should be 18" long.

External portable hard drives especially require this cable to function correctly because of the USB port current limit. I am very pleased with the heavier cable construction and reinforcement protection at the cable junction point. Quality color coded connectors allow for the cable to remain attached to the computer and plug in the correct added power connector when needed freeing up a USB port.

Use a Cables to Go 6' (1.82m) USB 2.0 One Mini-b Male to Two A Male Y-Cable, when your USB Mini-B device isn't receiving enough power from your computer. A separate, color-coded auxiliary USB Type-A connecter plugs into a second USB port in your computer to provide additional power-over-USB to your portable hard drive or other peripheral that needs an extra jolt of power.
