USB 3.0 cables..., which ones?

Looking to find USB cables about 12" long and thin, see many online. Trying to clean down some of the rats nest with the many long ones that I currently have.


See many for phones, but are they good enough for hard drives and card readers?


TIA

I know it's not your exact ? but any thought to getting a hub?

FWIW, I am pretty happy with monoprice for cables.

I now have a hub, the reason for wanting shorter and thinner cables.

Can't be whatever on sale. The main complaint with the ones from monoprice, cables are stiff, like the ones I have now. The hard drives can't sit level because the cables are stiff. So was hoping someone might know of some thinner.

Found some, but damn things a 6ft long.

Think I found some on eBay. Much thinner than the ones that came with the ssd enclosures I bought from Amazon.
