Today’s lesson for the computer beginner is my attempt to explain the USB Flash drive.

What is a USB Flash Drive?  Its is a Data storage device that you can take with you!

USB stands for Universal Serial Bus.

When I was in college all we had to save our work on was a 5 1/4 inch floppy disk.  In time we had used a 3.5 inch floppy disk which were nicer.  Next came the CD Rom, and now we have the USB Flash Drive.

With each generation of storage devices that we have had they got more durable, had more storage space, and are easier to everyone to use.  USB Flash drives can come in all colors, spaces, and even sizes.
