Unlock the Door to Your Computer's Heart

USB drives have become cheap to the point of disposability. I think there are four lying underneath my bed like dust bunnies. So a drive has to be particularly eye-catching to make anyone care—like these 3D printed "keys.

It's not the smallest, or the highest-capacity, or the fastest. But it's easy on the eyes, and you could put photos of your crush on it and wear it around your neck! Actually, that would be sort of creepy.

  1. I'm definitely a fan of how cheap USB drives have become (and will continue to become at ever higher storage capacities)

  9. I keep a USB drive of CP around my neck all the time. The send of risk and danger of openly wearing CP around my neck and the chance of getting caught drives me wild.

  13. From the ones i've seen, these are pretty ugly. I've seen much more attractive and creative drives.
