A USB drive is a plug and play storage device. It uses flash memory and is very lightweight. It can be used in place of a CD or a zip drive disk. It is recognized as a removable drive by computer. Custom USB Flash drives does not require rebooting after it’s attached, does not require batteries or an external power supply, and is not platform dependent.
With a USB drive, data can be retained for long periods when the device is unplugged from the computer, or when the computer is powered-down with the drive left in. It is very convenient to transfer data with the use of USB.
Their capacity ranges from 256MB, 512MB, 1GB, 2GB and 4GB and there are many forms of USB drives available in the market.
They are more compact, generally faster, hold more data, and are more reliable (due to both their lack of moving parts, and their more durable design) than floppy disks. These types of drives use the USB mass storage standard, supported natively by modern operating systems such as Linux, Mac OS X, UNIX and Windows.

Flash drive capacities on the market are continuously increasing. 64 MB and smaller capacity flash memory has been largely discontinued and 128 MB capacity flash memory is being phased out. Flash drives implement the USB mass storage device class, meaning that most modern operating systems can read and write to flash drives without any additional device drivers.
Flash drives can sustain only a limited number of write and erase cycles before failure. Mid-range flash drives under normal conditions will support several hundred thousand cycles, although write operations will gradually slow as the device ages.
