[QUOTE="ramses2005, post: 1621526, member: 167360"] Hello, I wanted to ask a weird question upon USB cables thatt power HDD external drives. Is it possible that some cables work and other don't, since they are both USB and should have the same voltage, amps, etc..?? I am finding out when connecting my HDD that if I use other cables that are alike, instead of a really short one that I have, it is powered well. I mean, it disconnects randomly to what I think is a power failure. But with the short cable it works perfectly for hours. Is it possible that this cable provides better power for my device? [/QUOTE]
