Good fit if

  • Owners of an Apricorn Aegis drive that needs dual-port power
  • Anyone who has lost or damaged the original cable

Look elsewhere if

  • Drives that already power and mount reliably
  • Anyone expecting storage or encryption — this is a cable only

A replacement USB 3.0 Y-power cable for Apricorn Aegis drives. The Y end draws power from a second USB port for drives — chiefly the larger desktop and portable units — that need more than a single port can supply, which is a common cause of a drive that mounts intermittently or not at all.

Buy it as a spare, or if the original has been lost or damaged. It is a cable: no encryption, no storage, nothing configurable. If your Aegis drive powers and mounts reliably on the cable it shipped with, you do not need this.
