Pen Drives now have been one of the most popular computer acessories. It is a good alternative of floopy disks. I use a pendrive which is a tranced V3 series. It has a capacity of 2 GB. What is your one? How much it's capacity? Have you found it very benificial to carry your important data?

Yes, but hey be careful about the new form of USB spread viruses. To be on the safer side, disable auto runs on usb drives in your PC..

Yes, I use a pen drive for my storage purposes. I use YES USB Pendrive - 1 GB. It has the great feature of Write-protection lock and no external power required to use it, just usb is enough.

Yes, I use 4 gb pendrive. I also get pendrives for use through my customers who wants me to process their text, tables and accounts pages to make a comprehensive report. It is more convenient than the use of CDs.

Actually I am not familiar with Pen Drives though I am familiar with USB. But i haven't tried it myself. LOL! I just saw it on my husband's brother. I don't know how much is the capacity but I guess It was 1G. For me it's kinda beneficial since you can store your data and carry it wherever you wanna like.

I use to have one for school about 2 years ago when they were really expensive. Now you can get one that is 2gigs or more for the same price I paid for my 512MB one. I dont have one anymore, I gave it to my younger sister when she started college. They are really useful to have, and now they are really cheap.

I also use a pen drive, but I have a flash drive which is faster than pen drive.. I have a flash drive with 2 GB capacity from Buffalo, which is a major japanese brand.. Flash drives are almost 16% faster than pen drives, and that's why I decided to buy a flash drive instead of pen drive...

Pen drives are memory solutions - So are pocket hard drives. Like the I'Pod, they are the modern young person's arsenal on the go.
I don't use a pen drive, but I've a USB external/portable hard drive that I tuck my stuff into for safe keeping. It has 60 gigs of memory. The device fits in the palm of a hand and it prevents data loss if I have a computer crash. I use it for moving data around when I transfer between Windows and Linux operating systems on my computer as well. * For the traveler, a pen drive is an excellent idea, although I do not go traveling.

I have 2 thumbdrives; 1 is Toshiba 2GB and another one Kingston 1GB, which I got for free. I use it to keep my work files or movies/series that I get from friends. Comes in handy when I need to bring back home to/from work, or when I'm on a business trip or whenever i wanna transfer files to/from friends..
