Weird, or maybe not, this one looks like a chocolate bar and each piece is made of a modular flash drive. It the middle of this chocolate we find a touchscreen which is used to organize collective files. Even if the design of this concept is very interesting and quite tasty, we wonder if this would work in the real world.

      Format a USB drive with NTFS file system
      By default, Windows XP will not allow you to use anything but the FAT and FAT32 file systems to format your USB drives. With a little fiddling you can also enable the NTFS file system on your removable devices though. As for whether you would want to, there are pros and cons. On the positive side, enabling NTFS allows you to encrypt your documents with Windows XP’s built in file encryption (though you should only do this in a Windows 2000 or 2003 domain network). It also allows the use of file compression to stretch the capacity of your disk. You can also use NTFS to allow and deny permissions for individual files and folders within XP, something you can’t do with FAT file systems. You can also set disk quotas. In short, enabling NTFS on flash drives might have several benefits for IT departments that use or issue these devices as standard.

      Lose Your USB Drive Cap? RooKaps Could Be the Answer
      This is why I like flash drives like the Sandisk Cruzer Contour. That drive doesn’t need a cap; it has a slider connector. Most flash drives don’t give you that sort of luxury. I can’t tell you how many caps I’ve lost. One problem with losing your drive cap — most [...]

      Free 1 GB USB drive
      I know this looks like it’s for “businesses” only, but a free 1 gig usb drive is too good to pass up. Plus, I already get credit card offers in the mail addressed to “Ryan Hey It’s Free” asking if I want a platinum business account, so why shouldn’t I be able to say HIF is a business and get a few perks? And yes, I actually get mail addressed to me with my first name and then my last name as “Hey It’s Free.” I really would like to meet the person who saw that name floating around out there and thought it looked legit enough to send a credit card offer to. He needs to be reassigned to the Moron Department, where employees are kept in a padded room and only allowed paper with round edges and dull pencils.

      USB Drive Management
      I've been looking out for a tool that will let me easily backup and restore my USB drives as I've been using NT Backup for sometime. The ideal thing would be when I insert a USB drive one of the options in the list to be'Backup Drive' - but until this happens a utility is needed.I happened upon a Microsoft tool earlier and I'm testing it now. It is called Microsoft USB Flash Drive Manager (Standard) and is available here. It's an old program by the look of it and has a work-in-progress feel about it - for instance it detects my usb drive as a 2gb/4gb drive. At the moment it's backing up my 8Gb drive and its taken around half and hour so far which seems a little slow to me but I will persevere in the short term as it seems like an interesting utility. It does need the .NET framework only and will only run on XP. For another useful utility try this link for KeePass.

      How-to: Run Eclipse or Aptana from USB Drive
      Last week I mentioned that Eclipse is now my favorite IDE for web development in PHP, HTML, Ruby on Rails and Java. I also mentioned that you can run Eclipse off an USB drive and said I’d write a how-to… well as promised, here it is! Running Eclipse or Aptana from your USB drive is fairly straight forward. Both programs are available in a standalone zip file that does not require any installation. So to install to USB, simply extract the downloaded zip file anywhere on your USB drive. However, since both are Java applications, this requires that the host computer you are running on to have the required Java run time files installed. Luckily, there is a way of including these Java runtime files on your USB drive as well. These instructions are for Eclipse but should work with Aptana as well. Download and unzip Eclipse SDK to your USB drive (version 3.2.2 at the time of writing). In the folder where you installed Eclipse, create a folder called “JavaFiles”
