Recently, I just got a 4TB WD HDD, and I’m using its cable for my 1TB Seagate as well.

I noticed that the transfer rate of the Seagate drive, when using the WD cable, is twice as fast as the cable that came with it, and they look almost identical. So now I only use that cable for both my HDD. But are there any downsides if I do that for long-term use?
