Does anyone have, or know where I can get locally, a "Dual USB 2.0 A to Micro B" cable for an external hard drive (similar to this one)?

I believe such a cable will allow me to use my USB 3.0 external hard drive (with a USB 3.0 Micro-B socket) on a computer which only has USB 2.0.

Are these cables available locally, or will I have to use a "Dual A to Mini B" cable and an adapter (e.g. this one) for the time being?

Hey, have you listed a price, location and how much shipping would be to other parts of New Zealand? Also if you are asking for a PM make sure your Privacy settings allow your account to receive PM otherwise people can't contact you. Also note if you are selling something we ask you to offer to other members first. Links to private sales (including Trade Me posts) aren't accepted anymore and will be removed.
