And it's no longer the best way to store your files.Enter the USB flash drive. Like a miniature hard drive, the USB flash drive writes data to a small flash memory module. Like a floppy, the USB flash drive stores data without the need for any power. But unlike a floppy, it is smaller, holds more data and is less prone to data loss. Most drives of this type can store data for 10 years! If you're using Windows XP or Linux, this flash drive is recognized without any further configuration on your part.
