Raspberry Pi

The RPi will be used for one single purpose: to copy files from one flash drive to another. Accordingly, you need to somehow select files for copying. Can I use an inexpensive 16x2 display or Nokia 5110 for this?
I have two USB ports. I would like to hard-bind one port for the source flash drive, the other for the destination flash drive. Flash drives will be different and varied.
And one more question: how to physically separate the ports (flash drives can be thick). Are there special adapters?
Practical experience is desirable.

For a short distance, the ports can be separated with a regular wire, or you can buy a USB extension cable.
A 16x2 display will not be enough - it contains too little information.
The display from the phone should be taken only the one for which there is a datasheet and libraries, such , for example.
