    Excellent Hard Drive, Weird connection.
    This very cool looking and affordable hard drive arrived on time in perfect condition brand new of course and included was a small cable that I couldn't really do anything with as I wanted to connect the computer directly to an older iMac USB interface.Talked to a computer techie kind of guy that worked for Best Buy and after a lot of back and forth thing he said do you have a USB to Android cell phone charger cord? He said try plugging the Android end into the larger part of the connection on the hard drive and plug that in the back of your iMac which I did. Magically, with this phone charger cord that I got at QT for two bucks, the hard drive was recognized by the iMac and I was able to transfer files and everything, weird huh?Anyway, the guy checked the store and they actually make a cable that plugs into the bottom of the hard drive, you can see the strange USB kind of connection in the picture I attached, so I went to Best Buy and got THAT cable (about 10 bucks) 'cuz it's purpose made for both the larger (android phone connection), and that smaller side...Best Buy guy n I never figured out what the small side of connection does..Oh well, hard drive works and it's awesome.
