Hi.

I recently bought a WD my book essential from a best buy in Boulder CO. Long story short, I’m in Costa Rica and I have no SS usb cable to connect my new hard drive to my computer. I need to find somewhere I can buy a replacement cable ASAP. Like I said it is an SS usb cable. And it sin’t shped like a normal usb cable its thinner and indented in the middle. Please help me. I have been looking for over an hour and I can’t find any websites that sell it. Maybe I’m gettin g the name wrong or something.

Thank you. Send me a reply or email at alfred.dalby@gmail.com

Hi there, I don’t quite get your post. On USB, “SS” stands for SuperSpeed or USB 3.0… If you’re looking for a USB 3.0 cable then you’ll need to look online or in a local specialized computer store, however, your MyBook also takes regular USB 2.0 cables, it can take micro if your MyBook is a 3.0, but a small empty hole will be left.
