I found an old portable hard drive that i thought i lost years ago - it sat in a docking port on top of my previous computer so i never had the appropriate cables etc for it and dont have anything that fits in my spares box either.
It looks like the centre one in this image.

I've got a spare cable if you want one

Yep. You need a full-sized USB-A to USB-B cable. That's a pretty standard cable, they were ubiquitous before mini-USB and micro-USB took over.
