I really love my portable drive. I use it to run Dropbox and it works perfectly. The only problem I have is with the cable. Because I use it with my 15" laptop (and the USB plug sticking out) it’s hard to fit the whole thing into my bag. I bought several 90 degree USB cables, but WD doesn’t seem to support any of them. Are there any cables that do work with WD except for the original WD cable? Does WD plan to manifacture a 90 degree cable for their devices? I mean, it would totally make sense. The current cables have really long plugs. Thank you!
The WD Passport line does support non-WD USB cables if they are short. This is because cable length affects energy feeding, and may not allow the device to operate within optimal conditions if at all if the cable is long.
