I have a 128mb Sandisk Cruzer Mini drive that I picked up from best buy 
for $29.  USB2 and works with my RH9 boxes.

I have to mount it manually right now but I'm sure if I cared I could 
teach it to automount.

Here's the nitty detail of how Linux (RH9) treats it.  It also works on my 
RHLAS 2.1 box.
