USB flash drive

USB flash drive

The author of the lesson at home had unnecessary HDD drives, and so he decided to create giant USB flash drives from them to surprise their familiar IT-people. You will also need a four-port USB hub and working flash drives.

We will need:
- the hard drive is inoperative;
- HDD drives;
- four working flash drives;
- epoxy resin or glue.

Step 1

Take a non-working hard drive, a four-socket splitter and working flash drives.

Step 2

Remove the fixing screws from the hard drive together with the cover and the central drive.

Step 3

When choosing a USB hub, be sure to make sure that it fits the size of your hard drive.

Step 4

Remove the plastic cover from the splitter.

Step 5
Place the hub in the center disk as shown in the photo.

Attention: If you intend to continue to use this device for its intended purpose, be sure to coat the connection with super-glue or epoxy (which will be at hand). Otherwise, when used, a giant flash drive can "fall apart" into parts, but this is not very convenient.

Step 6

Connect the flash drives as shown in the photo. There is nothing complicated here.

Step 7
All that remained for the author was to assemble the lid back. A flash drive in the form of a hard drive.

Test your device for performance and surprise your friends with it!

And why not make a dozen of them (as many as possible) and cram them into a huge refrigerator case, for example. That would be a FLECH! And lose does not work! And always with the ability to connect to a smartphone. Why, it’s very convenient! (Oh God! How much poison is in me! After all, it is said: "Do not judge, let there be no criminal conviction")
