When the Cable Is Too Short
One thing that has always annoyed us is how external hard drive cables are too short. How in the world are we supposed to lie our hard drives flat when the cable is only three inches? You could get a tub of ice cream to prop the hard drive up, or you can do what this person did.
They took a regular face mask and looped one end up through the obsolete CD drive. The other strap is used to hold the hard drive, so that it doesn’t sag and potentially warp the USB port. Now, that’s thinking with your noggin!
