Replacement cable for LG BP50NB40

Post by Genesys10101 »

Are there any Micro USB -> USB-C cables that can be used with the LG BP50NB40 that provide both data transfer and power?

I've got the original Micro USB -> dual USB-A... but I no longer have machines with dual USB-A ports, and even so, I'd like to reduce the number of ports used to 1.

You can just use the main USB cable and it will work if your USB ports provide enough power but any standard usb a to micro b 2.0 cable will work

I can confirm a standard USB-C to Micro B cable worked for me.

If you have a USB-C port, get a micro b to USB-C cable. No need to be concerned at all about the drive getting enough power.
Cheers :D

Whoops I totally meant USB-C, not USB-A. Edited my response above.
