We have seen a lot of fun and weird USB drives here at GeekAlerts – from strawberries to carabiners.

1. SolidAlliance Ken Blood Cross USB Memory
This cross USB memory from SolidAlliance is available in two models, silver and gold – both with 2GB of storage. The cross not only functions as decoration, it’s also a lock which keeps the USB plug secured when not in use.

Very bling bling indeed…but are any of them USB 3.0?

Den där nyckelringen var nice faktiskt.
Bling-bling indeed! The Younus Swing Gold USB actually looks god, and the price was not too bad…
That’s cool, Robert! Nice compilation of “bling-bling” thumb drives! 🙂
Thanks a lot for stopping by folks! Happy to hear you enjoyed the list. 🙂
The morgan ash gold is the only decent one, the rest are garish, and the thin gold plate on the Younus Swing Gold will wear off in a moment, and will look like the cheap brass necklace you brought your girlfriend when you were 10
Why do people always put gold or diamonds on technology that’s going to be obsolete in a year or two?
The only one in this list that i would EVER consider buying is the Younus Swing Gold. I much prefer functionality over gaudy looks that will be obsolete in no time.
Instead of having those colors for those usb drivers, i think having tungsten plated styles would be a huge hit. Probably last way longer too.
For a sleeker version…

No bling but REAL silver so you can wear it even with more dressed up outfits! I love them 🙂
The Cufflinks 2g and necklace is my favourite!!!
