• Old game cartridges recycled into hard drives by 8 Bit Memory

    Remember the good old days before the Xbox and the Playstation showed up? the days before the CD-ROM? Kids used to entertain themselves using cartridge-video games, that slowly with time and better technology, have disappeared into thin air. Left behind are the old game cartridges that most of us toss in the bin while cleaning up our attics. Well, maybe not all of us. 8 Bit Memory, a seller on Etsy, uses these old game cartridges to create external hard disks instead! Keeping them away from turning into e-waste, the hard disks can store as much as 500 GB to 1 TB of data! These cartridge-hard-disks are sure to stand out amongst the remaining boring old external hard drives we have today, with their sophisticated curvy sharp lines.


    For $120 to $180, you could pick up one of these hard-drives, and give yourself a punch of nostalgia and a load of memory space!
