Move your USB boot drive inside

Recommended Posts

I saw this Female USB-A header to USB2-internal header adapter, I've ordered two for myself to try. Looks completely passive in nature - I think I'll find this to be useful. My upside being I don't have to worry about my USB drive when I move my system around. I like the 2.0 variant, as that leaves another 3.0 port for my VM's. 

 

I though perhaps others in the community may like this, so here you go.

just be ware to provide some good airflow near the flash - i had one usb inside my server directly connected to the MB, and it worked OK for years until i added some PCIe card which is very close to usb port - then it started to drop out, i changed usb stick for another one but the same occur. finally i moved usb outside a case to some usb hub and no more drops..
