Strangest places you have lost tech in/at

dlf

We've probably all "lost" (or rather misplace(d)) some peice at some point - USB stick, hard drive, SSD, floppy disk, CD, DVD, blu-ray . . . . If you FOUND said peice again where did you find it? And had you bought a replacement for said item?

 

I just found a 4 GB USB stick in the car a drive - specifically where we keep all the coins (toll roads) and the garage door opener. I had bought a replacement (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820211670). GAH!

Found my Flash Drive wedged in the back of my chair. (Where the two pieces come together) 

It has been through the washer and dryer twice.

I was visiting a friend in prison and a USB key-ring was stolen from my keys which happened to be inside a locker with my wallet/phone etc, no inmates get into that area so it had to be a guard. All it had on it was a recording of a raid (WoW) lol

I once found a USB with some of my files backed up on it outside in the garden. Very weird.

 

My cats steal flash drives off my desk. That's about it

 

Weird! My cat steals everything off my desk. Pens, USBs, headphones, gloves, toys etc etc. She's a klepto. I hardly ever find what she steals. :lol:
