If I connect my ipad Mini 3 to a WD My passport via a USB female to female connector, will this invalidate the warranty
I have an iPad Mini 3 (16Gb) which I would like to connect to a Western Digital My Passport 1Tb external drive. neither of the connections is compatible, i.e. the
USB 2.0 connector cable for the iPad cannot be used to connect with the external drive because the connection socket on that is SS USB 3.0 Micro USB to standard USB 3.0 connector (compatible with USB 2.0).
However, there is a connector that will allow the standard USB male ends to connect via USB 3.0 female to USB 3.0 female, in the understanding that I will only be able to achieve USB 2.0 transfer speed (see pic).
Any thoughts please regarding voiding warranty on either component?
