USB flash drive
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Flash drive)

A USB flash drive is essentially NAND-type flash memory integrated with a USB 1.1 or 2.0 interface used as a small, lightweight, removable data storage device of up to 16 GB (as of 2006). USB flash drives use the USB mass storage standard for removable storage devices.

USB flash drives are also known as "pen drives", "chip sticks", "thumb drives", "flash drives", "USB keys", and a wide variety of other names. They are also sometimes erroneously called memory sticks, which is a Sony trademark describing their proprietary memory card system.
