How to get USB Drive for less than RM20 (USD 5)

o you own a mobile phone that uses RS-MMC, DV RS-MMC or mini-SD card?

Have you recently upgraded your phone’s memory card? What happened to the old memory card that came with the phone? Do you keep it in some drawer, give it to a friend? or just manage to lose it somehow?

Well today I would like to share with you something that I’ve done with an excess 64MB DV RS MMC card that I own.

  

All you need is to get portable memory card reader, I use the one produced by Edge (http://www.edge.net.my), you can get it from your local computer store or Lelong for RM12-18. The memory card supports RS MMC/DV RS MMC/SD/Mini SD card, and its surely flexible, the memory card didn’t fell off the slot even when I carried it everywhere.

      

Already bought one? Then insert the DV RS MMC (without adapter) to the card reader and voila! You’ve a USB drive for a cost less than RM20 (that’s USD 5 for comparison). Heh, It’s even supported on my Ubuntu Linux.

So keep this in mind the next time you’re upgrading your mobile phone memory card.
