Samsung T5 usb cable - ps4 error

[Squanchy]

Hey all,

 

So I've been using my T5 for awhile now on my ps4 pro using usb a to type c cable. I then used it on my pc which used type c to type c... since then I've lost my usb a to type c cable.

 

Whenever I try to use any other usb a to type C cable on the ps4, it refuses to use the T5 as extended storage.

 

From what I have found, there's a specific type of usb a to type C cable I need for the ps4 to accept the T5... does anyone know what Cable would work?

Just looking at the specs, the T5 is a USB 3.1 device, as is the PS4 Pro. You would want a USB A to C cable that is USB 3.1 certified. If you have the base PS4, that is only 3.0, but if buying a new cable, you may as well get a 3.1 cable.

 

I don't own a PS4, so this isn't something I have tested.
