Sometimes it feels like technology becomes obsolete faster than a fashion fad, but the Outdated USB Collector helps to combat that--at least in one small way. It offers a safe sanctuary for old and used flash drives to congregate in order to avoid being thrown out in the trash. But instead of huddling in an equally dark and dingy storage unit, the Outdated USB Collector is pristine and white, matching the rest of the owner's new and improved devices and gadgets.
Designed by Lee Seungmin and Jin Juhyun, the Outdated USB Collector consolidates the memory capabilities of the individual flash drives to form something of a harddrive. It even has a constantly updating LED display that shows how much free storage space is available.
