I am seeking a low-profile USB flash drive (in either 2.0 or 3.0) that would sit nearly flush with the side of the MacBook.
This way I can leave it in through reboot cycles, and hopefully find that macOS will mount it without needing to insert anew after every reboot.
The SanDisk "Ultra Fit" looked promising in Amazon's pictures, until I found that it protrudes quite a bit. It means that if I pull the MacBook from its bag and inadvertendly knock the flash drive, I will risk also knocking the logic board—possibly a very nasty event.
Does there exist a solution that sits nearly flush with the side of a MacBook? Ideally it would protrude just enough so I can grab it when necessary, but even if I need a special tool (such as two tiny screwdrivers) to pull it out, that is also good.
Another option is from Elago
Do you have any experience with this product? Does it nearly vanish inside a MacBook?
