Anyone know of a flash drive that doesn't have a light on it?

Or one that has a small dim light that can easily be covered up with marker or paint?

I'm afraid to even ask why an activity indicator bothers you...

My 32GB Lacie IAMAKEY has no light....
Nor does most "compact" drives...

Mine's dim enough to be covered by a permanent marker.

Why on earth do you want it covered, though? How will you know when stuff's finished writing to it before yanking it out?

Meh... nvm...

I can't really see what the problem of an indicator could be...

If a thumb-drive is plugged in wouldn't anyone assume it was beeing used atm?!

No, its for a car stereo with front USB port. Don't want an annoying light on the flash drive.

Thought about doing it to my SanDisk Cruzer, but I need another flash drive anyway. Why not get one with no light or a smaller light thats easier to cover up? Plus my biggest flash drive right now is 2GB. I'll need a 4-8GB.

Get one with an SD card reader instead (unless you've already bought it) I love my car stereo, cheap and nasty one as it is it's really not bad, the radio did kinda break but, who uses then when you've got a 16GB SD card full of music lol.

Yeah I looked at SD card reader stereos and should have got one. Too late now.

Shame, I bunged a USB Stick in mine not long after I got it, went to turn the volume up and knocked the stick out, never used it again just stuck with SDs Not helpful I know lol, actually learn from me, buy a very short USB stick

I don't like having a USB stick out the front, probably just asking for trouble. The stereo I have has all the controls on the left (drivers) side and the aux & usb inputs on the right. Should be less likely to bump it on accident.

Completely randomly, I have the top one.


I don't know why you particularly need reviews because they kinda either work or they're DOA.


Anyway, it's small, it's easy to loose and it doesn't have a light. (I put mine on a piece of string).

Don't really need reviews, but when I first started searching I wasn't get info on whether they had lights or not.

Some reviews on that small PNY Micro Attache that you have said its slow. Is it?

I use a "normal" sized usb for my car audio... doesn't really bother me tbh... control sceme identical to yours...
(I am left-hand-drive though)

My Kingston Datatraveler does have a hidden light, but it is on the opposite side of the driver...

I prefer SD cards though (fits in my cheap'o Denver radio aswell
