Your Old iPod Could Be A Sleeper Flash Drive
Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.
Apple’s discontinued iPod can still serve as a basic USB flash drive, letting owners store and move files between Mac and Windows computers without buying new hardware. Pre-iOS models mount as removable storage, though all are capped at USB 2 speeds and most offer under 20GB of capacity, with the iPod Classic the main exception. The trick mainly matters as a reuse option for the many iPods sitting unused in drawers, not as a reason to buy one: a new 32GB USB flash drive costs about $10 and holds more. Users with an old device on hand can repurpose it at no cost, while those without one are better off with modern flash storage.
