At first it was the floppy discs, then it turned to Cds, and more recently, for practical use when transporting we use USB drives. Only a half inch portion of the actual drive goes into the computer, and the rest of the device is open for creativity. Here are 10 of the most unique modded USB drives out there.The Thumb Drive<img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/computersight/2008/08/08/259221_0.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Another name for the USB flash drive is the thumb drive. That is probably the reasoning behind this thumb designed flash drive.The Teddy Bear Drive<img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/computersight/2008/08/08/259221_1.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />This is a modded drive that you probably won't find for sale. The either gutted the drive and inserter the contents where the head should be, or they just stuck the casing and all in place. It's not exactly portable, and would almost make a portable hard drive more practical, but it would still be good for a few laughs at work or school.The Swiss Army Knife USB<img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/computersight/2008/08/08/259221_2.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />This new Swiss Army Knife USB has to be one of my favorites. While it would not be acceptable for minors to be carrying around, it would be a nice USB drive for those who actually carry a Swiss Army Knife anyways. These come with storage capacities of 64mb to 1gb and are sold online.The USB Watch<img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/computersight/2008/08/08/259221_3.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Nothing like carrying and displaying your USB drive on your wrist wherever you go. You probably won't forget this at home, but it would be very strange to be walking around with a USB on your watch.The Lego Brick<img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/computersight/2008/08/08/259221_4.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />This was one of the original modded USBs that got people thinking, but I believe you can now purchase them online for about the same price as a normal USB. What can a Lego brick not do or make?The NES Controller USB Drive<img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/computersight/2008/08/08/259221_5.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />These controllers are used more for geek oriented mods than they are for gaming at the current time. This is just one of the many USB styled drives made from a NES controlled. If you mod it correctly you can even still use the controller.Backspace USB<img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/computersight/2008/08/08/259221_6.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Another common modded drive would be with old keyboard keys. They give it a real computer styled look. If you have a friend who isn't computer savvy you can use the enter key with the arrow pointing to the side you stick into the computer to pick a joke at their inexperience with computers.Chapstick USB<img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/computersight/2008/08/08/259221_7.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />A common item you'd find in your pockets was turned into a USB. It was a custom mod that you may need to order a special sized USB to get it to fit. It's not the front part that would be cutting it close, rather the insides of your USB.Chewing Gum USB<img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/computersight/2008/08/08/259221_8.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Rather easily done, but unique to say the least. There are several different gum and mint containers that are easily transformed into a new USB case. Simply cut a hole for the front to stick out, and secure your USB with glue or tape.Disposable Lighter USB<img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/computersight/2008/08/08/259221_9.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />             <a href="http://stanzapub.advertserve.com/servlet/click/zone?zid=124&echo=keywords_chitika,clr_link,clr_title,clr_bg,clr_border,clr_text&custom1=1195&custom2=201041&custom3=cd%2CComputer%2Ccomputers%2Ccreate%2Cdrive%2Cdrives%2Cflash+drive%2Cgeek%2Chard+drive%2Cmemory%2Cmod%2Cmodded%2Cnerd%2Cusb%2Cusb+drives&custom4=cd%3BComputer%3Bcomputers%3Bcreate%3Bdrive%3Bdrives%3Bflash+drive%3Bgeek%3Bhard+drive%3Bmemory%3Bmod%3Bmodded%3Bnerd%3Busb%3Busb+drives&custom5=cd+Computer+computers+create+drive+drives+flash+drive+geek+hard+drive+memory+mod+modded+nerd+usb+usb+drives&keywords_chitika=%22cd%22%2C%22Computer%22%2C%22computers%22%2C%22create%22%2C%22drive%22%2C%22drives%22%2C%22flash+drive%22%2C%22geek%22%2C%22hard+drive%22%2C%22memory%22%2C%22mod%22%2C%22modded%22%2C%22nerd%22%2C%22usb%22%2C%22usb+drives%22&clr_link=d4ff00&clr_title=CCCCCC&clr_bg=333334&clr_border=68776c&clr_text=FFFFFF&pid=0&lookup=true&position=1" target="_blank"> </a>Do you have a bunch of these disposable lighters lying around that don't work anymore? You can turn them into a cool looking USB drive with little work. Just gut the insides and cut the hole and you're finished.</blockquote>
