There are significant differences between a standard hard drive and flash memory. A hard drive is a fairly heavy palm-sized device composed of several spinning platters and a roving head that reads data that has been magnetically imprinted on the platters. Flash memory refers to a memory chip about the size of a postage stamp, or smaller. The memory chip is solid-state, or has no moving parts and is therefore less likely to fail. It is virtually weightless, retains data without a power supply, is faster than a hard drive, does not generate significant heat, and requires little power. This is excellent news for extending the life of laptop batteries, reducing their weight, and eliminating fan noise from systems.
Nothing they r both the same
USB drive, USB flash drive, Thumb Drive, etc, is just a small "Solid State" drive, "similar" to the RAM chips on the RAM card you put in your computer. There are no moving parts. They are usually maxed out around 32gigs capacity now.
A Hard Drive is a mechanical drive that has a motor and "platters", similar to CD's, that spin at high speeds, from 5400 rpms to 10,000 rpms. A hard drives capacity is around 3TB+, (3 thousand gigs, give or take).
Don't get it mixed up with a "USB hard drive" as that would just mean a hard drive in a "case" and sits on your desk that hooks up via the USB port. Its considered an External USB Hard Drive.
No it come with a Harddrive
There is no difference. Flash drive, pen drive, and thumb drive are all interchangeable terms.
lol really
A flash drive is solid state drive that is intended to store data. A flash player is a software program that plays videos in a flash video format.
only the name is different
Flash RAM is used for temporary data, such as in a USB drive. Flash ROM is used for bios and system files.
A 16GB flash drive can hold 4x as many files as a 4GB flash drive. I would recommend a 16GB.
mainly if you want to save movies/videos/music/pictures/other files on your computer "harddrive" storage/ choose Drive C:// or if you want it on a flash drive which is removable storage devices/ choose another drive / "example, Drive F:// so now you know. i recommend removable storage... on a flash drive/ portable flash drive.
A USB flash drive is a type of external drive. If you meant external drive as an external hard drive, then no, there won't be any difference in the pictures. However, if you're archiving, I'd suggest an external hard drive, because they work best for archiving.
Dragging it to the flash memory usually means copying it to a memory which is slower and can be portable.The desktop memory however is faster than flash memory but sadly not portable.
No, but it does have 512MB of internal flash memory.
A Zip Drive is a removable disk storage system. It is possible to save files to it and use it as a harddrive for your computer. They were rendered obsolete by the rise of CD's and DVD's and ultimately USB flash drives.
