If you go for the high-end, stylistic gadgets, then this one might interest your eye. Called the MNEMOSYNE, it is a 16 gigabyte USB storage cube that literally makes you disassemble it to actually get the USB drive which is inside the layers that make the cube – no, we are not kidding. Designed by Italy-based Japanese designers Toshi Satoji and Katsuya Masaki, each cube has a unique puzzle pattern and are carved from one single block of aluminium.

The only problem is that it will set you back 1,000,000 yen – or AU$13,061.69 – just to get this USB shape. But hey, if you have that much money to burn, this is the one thing you need. More images of the cube are below.
