What USB Type Is This?

[darthd]

Hey guys, I have this usb optical drive that I lost the cable for. I've scoured google, LG's website, ebay and I can't find the type of the cable. Is it proprietary? I know it's not mini-A, mini-B or uc-e6 (what nikon uses on it's small cameras). Here's a picture. The model is a GP10NB20.

It looks like a micro USB connector to me.

Hmm i'm not so sure. I just looked at the micro USB on the bottom of my phone and the one on this image looks far bigger (no not because its on my monitor) but the connection in the middle looks bigger (thicker) than the one in my phone. Also its shaped differently around the edges.

It looks fatter than micro to me. I think it's mini usb

that's odd, I've never seen a USB port like that before, it looks like it's micro but it seem rather large

Ok I'm an idiot. It is mini-b. I was under the impression the connector was a similar shape. Thanks guys.
