+Warwagon MVC Posted December 24, 2016 MVC Share Posted December 24, 2016 Today I designed and made a 44 Port USB flash drive holder. This is to replace that multi-port Hub I bought a while back to do the same thing. I don't know about you but I have a lot of USB flash drive now I have a place to put all of them. exotoxic, margrave, yxz and 2 others 5 Share Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1317376-my-homemade-44-port-usb-flash-drive-holder/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry if it is a stupid question, but does it do anything? Or is it just a place to plug in all your USB keys that you aren't using so that you know where they are when you need them?

Out of curiosity, why don't you consolidate the drives into a few? It's an old wireless G or N usb adapter. A lot of them are just spares with nothing on them. Most of the ones in the bottom left have Windows 8.1 and 10 setups.

techbeck Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 I dont like a lot of extra junk laying around. When I upgrade my flash drive, I make sure everything from my previous drive can fit and then stop using it. I got a 128gb drive now and when I start running out, I will upgrade and retire that one.
