Works as expected with Wii U
Works good to power an hdd for Wii U since the Wii U doesn’t supply enough power to power it, easy to set up, and not expensive.

Good Cable
I'm using this to power an external 5tb HDD on my "New" Atari VCS. Works as it should.

Saved my hard drive
This excellent Y-cable lets me connect to my defective WD EasyStore HDD that doesn't get recognized by Windows or Linux otherwise. I thought the drive was dead but it just needed more power. With this cable, I am able to connect right away and get good USB3-level speeds for large file transfers. Highly recommended.

Top quality construction. Cable too short for desktop towers, but fine for laptops.
Good quality, works as expected, drive mounting and data transfer proceed without a hitch. Connections are firm and tight. Overall length is a bit too short for use with a desktop computer - it leaves the hard drive dangling. Not ideal, even with a lightweight 2-1/2" drive. The clunky but serviceable workaround is two USB extension cables, or better yet a powered USB 3 hub. Perfectly suited for a laptop, Mac Mini, or the like. On an iMac, it can rest on the desk within about a 10" radius of the ports. Note that the first USB-A plug is USB 3, the second (presumably for power only) appears to be USB 2. You could put the second one into a cheap, powered USB-2 hub, saving a USB-3 port on the computer for data. The cable needs to be about 8" longer overall, or maybe it should be two products, for laptop and desktop environments.

Great Y-cable
Perfect for people who want extra storage for their Wii U. I use a Seagate 1TB portable HDD, and the cable makes it as good as the console's hard drive itself. The reason why you would need this for a Wii U is because it makes the external storage faster, and have more power — preventing crashes. Definitely a must have for anyone who still likes the Wii U
