What is a USB flash drive?

A plug-in device used to store information

A USB flash drive is a small portable storage device you plug into a USB port to store information. It uses flash memory, which is non-volatile, so your files stay on the drive even when it’s unplugged. This makes it handy for carrying documents, photos, and other data between computers or for backups. It isn’t software (that would be a set of programs), nor a general memory type like RAM/ROM, nor a network of computers. Its main role is simply to store and transfer data by plugging into a USB port.
