The VHS Tape is Transformed into a USB Hub
2 Comments By Eran Abramson on May 5th, 2008 in DIY (Do It Yourself)
Remember the good old video tape days?
I myself had hundreds of VHS tapes laying around with different TV shows, movies, and music videos that I watched over and over. With the speedy progress of technological innovation, it seems they have become completely useless, so quick.
This great do it yourself hack has brought the video tape back to life, in a classic and practical daily use. It has transferred our long lost video item into a cool looking USB Hub.
This diy project requires one of these loved tapes, an actual USB hub, some cables, and an optional switch. You can find the directions at Instructables, along with visual imagery and how to.
For me, this project brought tears to my eyes along with nostalgic memories. How about you? Do you miss the VHS tapes?

You know you could probably get a 2.5 HDD into a VHS cassette and turn it into an external HDD. Power light one side activity light on the other.
