I've just been searching for a nice way to deliver digital files to clients, and apart from long term archive like m-disc. (which most people probably won't have an optical drive for to read now). I'd really like to have the option for a CD/DVD sized case but instead of containing optical media it would have an SD card. The reason I want an oversized case for the media itself is that it leaves scope to make some nice artwork and would seem a bit more of a gift when sending out.
Does anyone know if there's anything out there to buy that can do this?
I've searched Google briefly to no avail.
I ask here because it might be useful to other if anyone has a solution.
Cheers.

Why not meet him in a dark alley next to some dumpsters?

NS, abandoned warehouses can protect you from inclement weather...
i would go with a thumb drive rather than SD card, since it's a more standard format and therefore more likely to be closer to future proof. packaging can be an envelope. could even be a fancy envelope.

True Curt... plus the echo from leaking pipes adds to the salesman ambiance.

Why not an external hard drive. Apparently not much more than $10 these days. You could put a nice graphic on the box. Put your logo on the drive itself with some nice vinyl.
Its got the size and heft that less likely to get lost compared to a thumbdrive. And it seems really fancy...

Jerome, that's just the case. You need to buy the compatible harddrive separately.
