You never know when you'll need a replacement.
Sites like Ebay have been great for extending the life of technology. Every camcorder, mobile phone, camera and portable hard drive that finds a new home instead of finding it's way into landfill helps the environment and makes nice pocket money for the legitimate private sellers. But sometimes those private sellers have gone and lost important cabling and instructions - sometimes without realising it - and pass their treasures on to you, the buyer, without something critical like a 1m USB 2.0 Type A Male to Mini-B 5 Pin Cable.
This 1m USB Type-A (Male) to USB Mini-B (5-Pin Male) Cable is commonly used for charging and data transfers for devices with the USB Mini-B 5-Pin Socket. Often found on some model digital cameras, MP3 players and external hard drives. Also used as a charging cable for the PlayStation 3 (PS3) Dual-Shock wireless game controller.
In my never-ending quest to have every possible cable worth stocking, I've found you the perfect replacement cable for your Mini-B 5-Pin device. It has all the great engineering qualities as my other USB cables, like 480Mpbs throughput capacity, nickel silver connectors and overmounding for frequent use at home, in the office or on the road.
All you need do is check that your device is compliant with the official USB Mini-B 5-Pin plug type (pictured), and you'll be transfering data between your camera and your pc in no time at all. Or your Phone and your pc. Or your pocket hard drive. Or...

Question:
I have an 8 year old WD 250Gb portable hard drive. Will the 1m USB Hi-Speed A to mini-B 5 pin cable allow me to attach to a TV and show movies?
Answer:
"If your TV has a USB socket which supports file playback, then yes, any USB cable which would work for connecting the HDD to your PC would also work on your TV. Please note that not all televisions support all file types, and any files which your TV can't play will not show up when accessing the drive."
