Hide your drive from 3-Letter-organizations or burglars. Bury a
bus-powered usb drive in your wall near your ethernet face plate.
Since cat5/6 has 8 conductors but only uses 4, you can patch USB into
the other 4. On your motherboard connect the unused pins of the
ethernet port to an internal USB header. By the time they get your
machine to the lab and figure out what that USB header is doing, your
drive is in your safe house.
