USB Flash Drive Small Enough To Go In the Front USB With Flap Closed?

I've got a friend who's asked me to help set up his new Z Gemma HS.2 with wooshbuild and also add a Wifi USB device. I've already got the HS.2 and run mine with a 16GB Cruzer Fit 32GB 2.0 USB in the back for swap file and recording etc. However I don't need the WIFI as I'm connected via ethernet directly. I would ideally like to have the WIFI adapter on his unit in the BACK USB to look as neat as possible. What I would like to know is if there is a USB Flash Storage Module so tiny that it will be possible to plug into the front with the cover closed for purely aesthetic reasons. I already know this is not possible with the San Disk Cruzer Fit models. Any suggestions?

P.S I've been led to understand the Micro SD slot is not an adequate replacement for recording live TV etc. Only for Swap Files, IPTV Download/Buffering and EPG
 
I agree with you, but this is their requirement. The router is two rooms away and plug sockets are limted. I'm hoping they get reasonable reception via WIFI.

Its better hard wired but there is a small tp link wireless adapter you can get i used one before I got powerline for upstairs but then you can get a small San disk memory stick that you could put in front my sons is in front it partly closes then I just put black elections tape over the flap https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B0...ss+adapter&dpPl=1&dpID=31ChKj3dl7L&ref=plSrch

Thanks for the link, I should point out though that I'm actually looking for a flash storage device for the front rather than a wifi adapter. I already have a wifi adapter that I intend to put in the back of the unit. The query really is whether there was a flash storage device small enough to fit in the front with the flap closed. My Cruzer Fit Sandisk one I have in the back of my ethernet connected Zgemma is ever so slightly too big.
 
Flashes every time no problem... and if I put a usb in the front it doesn't touch the front flap!
