Title: Does anybody know the mini size flash drive that is working on HHKB usb hub?
Post by: Jaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay on Mon, 28 December 2015, 05:15:20
I just want to buy one for saving my documents.

But, any of mine doesn't work because it doesn't has enough supply of electricity.

I've just managed to find a drive that works - it's an old 2gb "Corsair Readout" so far from mini but does prove it's possible.

If you want a low powered drive I'd suggest getting an OTG one designed for phones, they should be nice and small too.

I tried a couple of Microsoft mouses and half a dozen USB memory sticks and nothing worked.  I just use a powered USB hub now.

Since some USB's wont even be detected, am i right to safely assume a xbox controller wont detect at all?
