*Help* Screw in stabilizers not fitting in Dropshift V2 keyboard
I'm trying to build a mechanical keyboard with screw in stabilizers, I've build some mechanical keyboards with click-in stabilizers, never with screw in. Somehow one of the pins of the metal top-part collides with the screw in stabilizer of the numpad "enter key". I already tried grinding of a bit of the pin that collides with the stabilizer, but unfortunately I can't make it fit/close properly. You can see that the pin of the toppart leaves a mark on the bottompart of the stabilizer, see picture 2. What am I missing? Using Durock V2 in a Dropshift fullsize V2. See pictures below, thanks in advance!

Some of the recent USB3 thumb drives are almost solid state drives with a USB3 controller instead of SATA3 one. I have a Sandisk Extreme flash drive that can pull something like 130MB/s, but I've never tried to plug it into my old Corsair K95. I might have to dig it out and see what happens.
P.S. - I found the specs on my Mooltipass, and it claims it needs 5V 0.5A, so it may not work on 100mA.
It is interesting, though, that a drive plugged into a USB2 port would need the juice if it is limited to ~35-50MB/s (for practical purposes... technically the max transfer rate would be 60MB/s, but you have USB protocol overhead that limits actual data transfer) by USB2.0's max speed. USB3.0 devices are allowed to pull 900mA, so some of the high speed devices use multiple flash chips and a striping controller that reads/saves a chunk of the data to each chip simultaneously to reach those high speeds (similar to several drives in a RAID0 array). Because of this it is effectively several USB2.0 drives all plugged into one USB port.
