As usual when you buy a product that requires a USB cable manufacturer gives us one who does ... 50cm (or 90cm when it's nice). Here we 270cm! And it's good not to break the brain to place his external hard drive to within a meter of the PC (or multimedia player). Nothing to say about the production, well finished looks solid and above: Gold plated plugs (it may seem far-fetched to some but it is better than less). Its price is reasonable widely seen what is found in trade (by 9). In short it was worth the money.
