The drive itself has an anodised aluminium top cover for durability but disappointingly a plastic bottom and comes in grey, blue, red and gold versions. That being the case WD should really put their logo on cable and the adaptor as well as ideally the USB speed it supports. It’s very important that you don’t lose this cable because while all USB-C to C cables have the same shape connector, they’re capable of vastly different transfer speeds.
