Two usb connections stock HU
Is there a good clean way to add another usb to my 2020 stock HU? I keep my phone plugged in now for android auto, but would like the option of keeping a larger thumb drive connected as well for my music library. I dont think the HU has a spare usb input, but just checking to be sure. The only other option I can think would be a usb hub, but those are usually larger enough to take up most of the cubby space. Any ideas?

Maybe this?
It's smaller than a hub, but looks small enough to fit in the "glove box".

My only question would be, how would the head unit determine what input to use when? I could see it if one of the USB was for charging only, but both would be used as inputs. I would imagine conflicts taking place if not switched between a or b.
