USB 2.0

The USB flash drive is the modern equivalent of the floppy disk, zip disk and CD, used to store and easily transport digital data. They are commonly referred to as thumb drives or pen drives due to their compact size, some so small that they can be carried on a keychain or necklace.

In addition to its portability and affordability, another advantage of the USB flash drive is its ease of use. Even a computer novice can easily use a USB flash drive, as its use only needs to be plugged in to a USB port, allowing files to be dragged to or from the computer, providing true plug and play capabilities.

USB 2.0 technology provides for a higher maximum speed than previous USB technologies. It has a raw data rate of 480 MB/s, which is 40 times faster than USB 1.1 and makes it the perfect solution for your on-the-go needs.
