Can you set flash drives to be write-only?
Why would you want to do this?
Logging.  If a h@xx0r cracks your box he can't erase anything that's
already been written there.  Often it takes a physical change (jumper,
dipswitch, etc) to change from write-only to read-only making it pretty
tough for the h@xx0r to cover his steps.

Eh? Setting a flash drive to *write-only* would fix this how? Why would 
anyone want to make a flash drive *write-only*?
