Storage Solutions Need dual USB cable

[junkiedogg]

Hello,
I had recieved a dual USB - miniUSB cable with my Transcend 250GB external HDD. You know the type where one of the USB is used to provide power? Well, I lost that cable. I tried using normal miniUSB cable and the hdd doesn't get detected.

So any way of getting one of those?

I think you stay out of Mumbai but just wanted to let you know that Lamington Road in Mumbai has this cable. I personally had got it from Othree in Lamington Road for 90 bucks.

After checking eBay .. ( I found the proper name to use .. 'Y cable' ), I found that Indian cutthroat sellers are selling it for around Rs. 375 ! From eBay.com for around $1.99 which is almost the same as Rs. 90. The only problem would be the two weeks delay in getting the item.
