Remember that Aleratec "USB Copy Tower" that replicates 11 thumb drives at a time? Virtual Console's "USB Flash Drive Duplicator" would bury it alive then spit on its grave.

This beast can make digital copies of 60 1GB drives in just over 2 minutes, claiming to be the fastest device of its kind, according to Slippery Brick. And if you're making the copies on an espionage mission behind enemy lines, the machine can encrypt files as they're being duplicated and create a unique key for each one. All that's missing is an option to self-destruct.
