There're two types of USB ports, low powered for things like mice or
keyboards and high powered for things like printers or external hard
drives. Maybe that's how the USB ports are configured on that keyboard.

Are you doing this using a notebook? Mines is a Kingston 4GB
something or another and says more power is needed. I have nothing
plugged into the keyboard except the thumb drive. Strange, but I can
plug it into the left side and the portable VO prefs. come up but no
recognition in the Finder. I can plug it in on the right side and it
says I need power, go figure.

I plug a thumb drive into mine all the time. It's probably
dependant on the type of drive and the power that it draws. That
keyboard, and all the devices you plug into it are sharing 1 power
source. If you've got a mouse plugged in as well, plus a thumb
drive, you will be dividing the power in half. My kingston data
traveler had no problems. Hope this helps a little bit.
