It’s interesting isn’t it, how many ‘male’ ends of electronics connections actually have slots in them. That’s why I like Lightning connectors—the male end is genuinely that. They look and feel like they’re less likely to fail. Maybe bits of fluff can be pushed into them but that’s easily fixed.

Interesting. I like the fact that the Seagate ones have differently coloured versions. It will help me to remember which drive I’m using for which purpose. Having several black slabs gets confusing.
