Usb Flash Drive Sticks Make Life Easy!

USB (Universal Serial Bus) Flash Drives are used to store data and are data storage devices

, it has flash memory with integrated interface that is USB (Universal Serial Bus) interface. Universal Serial Bus Flash Drives are removable, they can be rewritten and they are come in very small sizes so they can be carried from one place to another very easily even in your pocket. You can store data in it by transferring it from your computer and then you can remove it safely from your computer ( click on the USB icon in your system tray and click on stop USB option and then windows will tell you that you can remove flash drive safely from your computer).

In the previous history of computer the computer storage devices like floppy disks and even today the CDs or DVDs are of a big size but the USB (Universal Serial Bus) Flash Drives come in very small sizes so you can carry your data where ever you want to easily now there is no need to carry a whole pack of floppy disks with you because all that and more can come in your pocket now. As compared to the weight the USB Flash drives weigh just less than 30g so you can carry it easily whereas compared to a pack of floppy disks or CD Disks it is much more easy to carry it because of its less weight.

If you are talking about storage capacity then in September 2011 up to 256 Giga Bytes USB Flash drives were available. So can guess that how much capacity you have with USB Flash drives, let me do it for you , just divide 256 GBs with 4.7 ( That is the capacity of a DVD Disk ) and the answer is that you can pack 54 DVDs in one small USB (Universal Serial Bus) Flash Drive.

The storage capacity of a USB Flash drive are being planned to be as large as two tera bytes and also with improved sizes and a per capacity slight increase in price. Some of the Flash Drives allow up to 100000 write and erase cycles but that all depends on the type of the memory chip used and it also gives a ten year shelf storage time. They are not that costly as well and you can even get them on discount from some companies.

They are small in size, moveable, have much more capacity, you carry them easily, they have less weight and with all that they are most reliable and durable because they have no moving parts like other drives do.

Up till 2005 most laptops and desk tops were provided with floppy drives etc but now all that has been abandoned with the appearance of USB (Universal Serial Bus) Flash Drives.

USB Flash Drives have USB Mass Storage Standard and it is supported by all modern Operating Systems like Mac OS X, Linux, windows and others like Unix-Like Operating Systems, USB Flash Drive is also supported by many BIOS boot ROMs. So they must be on the list of your daily online deals.
