Not only does this make your USB drive super-thin, it also continues to protect the sensitive electronics from electro-magnetic certain death. The plastic covering is dense enough to not interfere with the operation of your thumb drive. Now, is yellow the only choice?

    Nope! Blue is also an option.

    Another option would be red.

    I’ve done something like this. My 1 gb flashdrive came in this casing that would render my free usb ports useless. I work in a cement lab, so how i could i not resist casting it in a rapidset cement. I guess i don’t have to even bring up the topic of damage. Not with a compressive strenght ~7000psi
