DT´s Flash Drive Blog

Even though musical.ly doesn’t exist anymore (now part of TikTok) we still have music.allies to rely on.

What do I mean?

I mean flash drives that come in musical shapes!

And other USB devices that aid you in the realm of music.

So let’s start with the basics.

A note carrying notes!

A note for a node: Musical Note Flash Drive (@ ) or ()

The notes would probably be in the form of text files but nothing stops you from storing or transferring actual music too.
This can be done up to 64GB and with a tempo of 480 Mbps max.
The beat is up to you..

Of course one could also use a classic MP3 player or iPod for that.

They often come with a USB connector or MicroSD Card and there’s still quite a variety out there – in spite of cell phones.

Music Carrier : MP3 Players (@ ) or ()

I don’t know about you guys, but I still have mine and prefer using it for listening to music when being outside.
To me MP3 players are just handier and more charming than mobile phones.
But most importanty, the sound quality is a lot better!
Which makes sense of course – because they’re dedidcatd to music.
Indeed, they have a better Digital-to-analog converter (DAC) and also their amplifiers are more powerful!

Some of them have more storage too (dedicated only to music), especially the iPods.

Do you make music yourself?

Are you a singer?

If so, you may want to consider storing your impressive vocal talent on a micropone flash drive!

Speaks to You: Microphone Flash Drive (@ ) or ()

Of course you can’t record on there.

That you could with an actual USB microphone.

But you can easily carry it around and pop it into the laptop of the talent agent or record label owner you just met at the bar.

They can then listen to it immediately and sign you right on the spot.

Yay, a new star is born!

If you’re not a singer however, don’t fret.

Bassists and guitarists have their own flash drives too!

Data Distortion: Guitar Flash Drives (@ ) or ()

You may actually recall that I blogged about guitar flash drives before.

But even if you don’t play bass, guitar or sing there may still be something in the USB port for you.

How about a keyboard or piano?

Plug & Play it again, Sam: Piano Flash Drive (@ ) or ()

Or violin flash drive?

Stringed Storage: Violin Flash Drive (@ ) or ()

Or Saxophone?

Saxy Storage: Saxophone Flash Drive (@ ) or ()

Or accordion?

8 – 64GB, Accordingly: Accordion Flash Drive (@ ) or ()

Or maybe Cello?

Bowed Bytes: Cello Flash Drive (@ ) or ()

As you can see, as a band you’re pretty much covered.

Even if you’re not a cover band.

The only instrument that I couldn’t find as flash drives are drums and percussions. Weird??

I guess you can always bang on the laptop or PC, especially if things aren’t going smoothly…

But you know, it’s not like you have to be in a band.

You can also be just a fan.

So say, say, say hello to…

For a Smoot Terminal: Michael Jackson Flash Drive (@ ) or ()

…Michael Jackson flash drives!

And for the other half…

Beatles flash drives!

Pep(per) up your Port: Beatles Flash Drive (@ ) or ()

And if you like it rockier…

KISS flash drives!

Store It Out Loud: KISS Flash Drive (@ ) or ()

Btw, I’ve always been a music lover and musician myself.

I started to play keyboard/synthesizer when I was a teenager and always recorded stuff too.

I didn’t really go professional however until a few years ago, including making sample packs for digital audio production.

I’ve released two 80s sound libraries which you can find on ebay too.

Both stem from the famous Fairlight CMI (II & III) so check them out!

Fairlight CMI Samples (@ ) or ()

Of course, you could always get a real Fairlight too.

Currently, there’s one for sale that was used by the Pet Shop Boys & Bee Gees.

It’s only 50,000 bucks, you know…

Fairlight CMI IIx

Well, with all these musical storage aids one thing’s for sure:

The Bandwidth plays on!

Even though the Fifa World Cup is several months behind us with Argentina being the new champions
(and France not being able to defend their title!)
the ball still keeps on turning and so does the world of technology.
Flash drives are still flash drives and still come in various shapes and models including soccer flash drives!

Let’s see which teams we can root for.

Well, how about actual soccer player flash drives?

Scoring up to 4GB: Soccer Player Flash Drive (@ ) or ()

Looks like we can continue the world cup with these.
Who can score the most Gigabytes?
I don’t know but I bet the fastest are the France flash drives, the vainest the Portuguese and the most sensitive the Brazilian.

Don’t believe me?

Well, maybe these will convince you.

Stick it like Messi or Balotelli : Soccer Stars Flash Drives (@ ) or ()

Once you plug it in, two things can happen with the Neymar flash drive
and – to a certain degree – also with the Cristiano Ronaldo flash drive.
It will either yell “GOAL!” or it will fall right out again, rolling around on the floor and crying foul…
‘Cos sometimes – you know – it can really hurt to get stuck up like that!

If you don’t want to nominate specific soccer players you can also go with robotic football flash drives.

More Reliable Performance than their Human Counterparts? Soccer Robot Flash Drive (@ ) or ()

Eh, wait a minute – aren’t soccer players already robots?
Maybe these flash drives are (penalty) spot-on.

If you don’t want to go with players at all you can also put on plain soccer jersey flash drives.

Fitting 64GB: Football Jersey Flash Drive (@ ) or ()

These should be a tight fit – just like it is common these days on soccer players.

Just make sure not to get this type:

Germane to a Computer Game: Germany Soccer Flash Drive (@ ) or ()

After all, nobodoy wants to be associated with a loser, right?
Not only did Germany make a historical first exit round at the World Cup via defeats by Mexico and South Korea,
it also just failed in the newly installed Nations League.
(And that due to another loser team, the Dutch.
I mean they didn’t even make it to the World Cup, right?)

Then again, you never know when the one on the bottom will be the one on top again -
that can happen real fast especially with soccer!
(No, not what you had in mind you gutter geeks!)

Also, we need balls.

(Again, NO you gutter geeks!)

In it for the Count: Soccer Ball Flash Drive (@ ) or ()

Just like the Goalie and great Titan Oliver Kahn once said.
“Balls….we need balls”

Ah yes – what would football be without the ball(s), right?

Or for that matter, without the foot?

Here or to Go: Foot Flash Drive (@ ) or ()

* Footloose – Footloose – kick off your football shoes *
*Footloose – Footloose – come on you Socceroos *
Oops, I digress!

Of course an honorary mention should also go to this guy.

64GB Quarterback: American Football Flash Drive (@ ) or ()

After all, football doesn’t equal football.
Especially when you’re in a country that is like…
secluded from the rest of the world and stuff.

Speaking of countries…

how about we finish this match with soccer flash drives that carry the national flags?

Countries having a Ball: National Flag Football Flash Drive (@ ) or ()

Well, I’m sure there’s a winner here for everyone.

And whatever football memory you bet on you won’t be losing much money with any of these sticks!

With all these new Star Wars Movies out (such as the Trilogy continuing after Episode VI)
it is time to explore the vast space of Star Wars flash drives.
So in a computer not so far away, may the force get stronger…

First we have the Stormtrooper flash drive.

Stick of the Clones: Stormtrooper Flash Drive (@ ) or ()

Marching with high speed they bulk up to 32GB under their armor.
They also come as shock, snow and clone troopers -
and If you’re lucky you’ll even find the oddball black stormtrooper.
Or is that space ball? After all, they piloted the TIE fighters.

What if we unmask the Stormtroopers?

Lurk Skywalker & Hide Solo: Unmasked Stormtrooper Flash Drives (@ ) or ()

Lo and behold, there may be Han Solo or Luke Skywalker underneath!

But let’s change to their normal apparel.

Jedi Powered: Luke Skywalker Flash Drive (@ ) or ()

Well, more or less. Whether he’s in his Hoth, black Jedi or pilot outfit -
the Luke Skywalker flash drive can move your data in the blink of an eye.

And so can Han!

Smuggling Files: Han Solo Flash Drive (@ ) or ()

Unless he’s stuck in that really cool carbonite case.

Maybe Leia can get him out.

Runs on Buns: Princess Leia Flash Drive (@ ) or ()

Yep, there’s even a Princess Leia flash drive disguised as bounty hunter Boushh.
I’d rather go for that skimpy bikini outfit though -
after all, most drives need a slave, right?

Only one thing missing for this gang. Yep, here it is,

gh: Millenium Falcon Flash Drive (@ ) or ()

Cruising with lightning speed, the Millenium Falcon flash drive has room for 16GB. It is Lucasfilm approved and made out of of pewter, a high qualty alloy of tin, copper and antimony.

Wait….is that a moon?

Still a Space Station: Death Star Flash Drive (@ ) or ()

No, it’s a flash drive, you dummy! It’s just in the shape of the Death Star.
You know what the Death Star is, don’t you?

He lives in it and he’s your master.

Disturbance in the Port: Darth Vader Flash Drive (@ ) or ()

Breathing up to 64GB the Darth Vader flash drive comes in rubber, plastic,
as a Mimobot or even a Plushie. Now that’s dark!

And what if we unmask him?

Data, I’m your Father: Anakin Skywalker Flash Drive (@ ) or ()

Pretty gruesome too, huh?

Speaking of gruesome…
Darth Maul wants in (on it) too.

No Phantom Space: Darth Maul Flash Drive (@ ) or ()

Also in rubber or plastic and hauling up to 32GB
the Darth Maul flash drive definitely holds some force in its own right.

But surely he’s no match for this guy.

Backup your Computer wisely you must: Yoda Flash Drive(@ ) or ()

To teleport all your data the Yoda flash drive manifests in many forms.
Contemplating up to 64GB the memory with these ones are strong.

Not as smart but definitely hairier is the Chewbacca flash drive.

Wookie Docking : Chewbacca Flash Drive (@ ) or ()

There’s even a limited edition where Chewbacca carries C3-PO on his back.

Equally hairy but even less smart should be the Wampa flash drive.

Data Blocks of Ice : Wampa Flash Drive (@ ) or ()

But who cares as long as he can crunch the bytes, right?

By the way, the Mimobot drives include charcacter specific wallpapers, icons, screensavers and sounds. Pretty cool I say.

For more Star Wars flash drives stay tuned for Episode II !
