The press release for the P10 states it is USB 3.1 Gen 1 capable but it doesn’t advertise it in the current listing. Can anyone confirm this?

The USB Forum is confusing as hell. Are you ready? Okay: USB 3.0 is SuperSpeed, which would make it too easy to determine which USB is which, so of course they don't use that name. So it's called 3.0, except now it's not. 3.0 and 3.1 gen 1 are the same thing, same speed and all (5gbps). Then you have USB 3.1 gen 2. It's a genuine upgrade over gen 1 speed, but PSYCH! Name swap again! Now 3.1 is 3.2 gen 1, and 3.2 gen 2, and now there is a new one called 3.2 gen 2 by 2! It's maddening! Anyway, in summary, yes this drive is USB 3.0, or 3.1 gen 1, or 3.2 gen 1, whichever you wanna call it.

Does it come with the necessary usb cable? lots of marketing blah-blah-blah but little useful information.

It should come with a 2-3 foot long cable 3.0 cable (B-type to A-type). I have yet to buy an external USB HDD or HDD enclosure without some kind of USB cable.

Can I use this hard drive for backing up my PC for pictures, movies, excel, word files?

I’ve had this hard drive for 4 months and it performs beyond expectations. I’m a hardcore gamer and I rely on fast connection speeds. This hard drive, while made for games, would be useful for storing apps, pictures and documents. In fact, it’s overkill if that’s all you plan to do with it, but it will work better than non-gaming portable hard drives.
