The aliens have landed! They’ve invaded your laptop and are reading all of your data! Or are they saving all your data and flying it off to the mothership to protect it?

These fun UFO USB flash drives come to us courtesy of crafter OrigamiMe (yeah, I know this isn’t origami). Each one stores 4GB of your otherworldly data, and is hand-carved from basswood and painted with shiny chrome enamel paint to look just like one of those retro 1950s spacecraft.

Sure, it’s not the most practical looking USB drive I’ve ever seen, but it could be the coolest. You can get yours over at OrigamiMe’s Etsy shop for $30 (USD).
