I'm looking for a source for an adapter to plug the flash drive directly into a USB Header on the motherboard without an intermediary cable or circuit board.  I previously had a bookmark that was from one of distributors for multimedia PCs in cars however I can no longer find it.  Anyone know of a source?

I asume you are talking about something like this.

without an intermediary cable or circuit board.

Not sure how that would be possible. You would need either a cable or a circuit board between the pins on the motherboard and the type A connector. Would you be able to explain what you are wanting?

I just use an old internal usb header cable. The kind that would plug onto the motherboard header with a cable that would go to a rear plate on the case. I just velcroed it to the inside of my case instead.

The only other option I have seen is what prostuff1 listed. Thought it was on newegg but I can only find this.

I looked all over for these a month or so ago, and didn't find a US site. Thanks for the link. (they charge a lot for shipping).

The version I found before was slightly more compact (only had a single connector despite using the 10 pins for stability) although both of the linked by prostuff1 and xamindar are far superior to the models I have come across in recent searches.  I will just choose one of those and proceed.

 

Its for two purposes, one I have a very small unraid server (itx) and want to put the rather long key inside so it doesn't get bent if slid against the wall, the other is for a development virtual server which isn't related to unRAID.

 

Thanks guys.
