I remember when I got my first computer and I took computer classes to learn how to use it. The teacher told us to buy a floppy disk to save our work. The floppy disc only had the capacity to load 1.44 MB. When the first flash drive came out I bought a 64 MB and I was so happy about it.

I have been using these drives for years to play music in my vehicles, they work better than satellite radio (no commercials and higher quality and no subscription) plus you can put a lot of music way more than you ever could with a CD (at the highest quality setting).
I also use some for portable apps but for those I mostly use a regular portable drive (they are small enough and not expensive anymore unless you get over 2 TB solid state that is).

One thing for sure. No one can put ransomware on a flash drive whenever it is unplugged. My preference is external hard drives to back up my important files like photos and other critical files.

I've worked in IT for over 20 years and when seeing videos like this I hope to find at least one morsel of information that can actually be useful to users. OMG this video is one of those diamonds in the rough. 5 actual things of value that is not just clickbait.

Excellent set of 5 functional options for old flash drives. Cheers Mate!

I hardly ever use cloud files (except at work) and with flash drives memory getting larger and larger, basically I treat them as a small, compact easy-to-carry additional portable hard drives. Thanks for the hints. Some of them are reallu useful. :-)

No such thing as In the olden days, USB DRIVES ARE THE BLEEDING EDGE OF TECHNOLOGY.
USB, hard disk, SSD, memory cards are great storage mediums. With their own practical use case.
A cloud is someone else's computer.
Don't let them own you.

An advanced option is to create a variety of restore drives with the thumb drives. That can include a variety of repair and optimization utilities that are usually included.

I only use the flash drives. I don't trust cloud.

I knew most of this, but this was great and reminds me what I can do. I have a Kingston Data Traveler Drive made of metal with a keyring hole and is very compact.

[youniquetreasure]

Thank you Liron Segev. I just discovered you here on YouTube and I like the information you are sharing. It is very helpful, and fun discovering this information.

CLOUD = 'Someone' else Computers.... 'ALWAYS' Keep that in mind.

[MiaHessMusic]

I use USB drives all the time!!! I love them!! I never thought about putting my travel itinerary and stuff on a flash drive. Far out, great idea!

[pemtax]

First of all ... new sub here. Secondly, this was one of the most useful videos I've seen in quite a while ... you managed to provide a huge amount of outstanding and useful information at a pace that even kept my attention from start to finish. So many content providers could really learn a lot from your format, presentation and content. Thanks much for what you do!! Cheers ...

[LetsFixITJoe]

This one is the best video about flash drive usage and material ever seen on YT ! Thanks a lot...!!

I used to use Hirens a long time ago and forgot about it. After watching your video, I am happy to be reacquainted with it. You got a thumbs up and a subscription asap! 1000%

I love USB Flash Drives. Many of my friends keep telling me to stop using them and start using the Cloud. Not sure why they care what I use but I just ignored them. Now I can hit them with the info from this video! Lol. While watching this video I immediately became a fan. Thank you so much!! Looking forward in exploring your other videos. Take care.

[wbarbosabr]

I know Hiren's CD for a long time but was not aware of Hiren's CD PE. Thanks a lot, dude!
