What is Pendrive?
We use a pen drive to secure some data or to transfer data from one computer system to another computer system, it is very portable which means it can easily be carried anywhere anytime. This is why it is used a lot. USB flash drives are connected to the computer via USB (Universal Serial Bus) Port. These devices do not need an external power supply because they take power directly from the USB port to be operated.

What is a flash drive?
Flash drive is an improved version of pen drive. Pen drives and flash drives work the same way, but flash drives are faster than pen drives. And along with being fast, the flash drive can store data for a long time.
Flash drives are becoming more advanced, including 1.1, 2.0, 3.0, and 3.1, with 3.1 being the most advanced version.

What is the difference between a pen drive and a flash drive? 
The pen drive replicated storage devices such as CDs, floppy disks, etc. as the pen drive was smaller than other storage devices and had a much higher speed, was easier to use and was a portable device.

Flash drives were made to make the pen drive more advanced. It is also capable of transferring data at a much higher speed than a pen drive and storing data for a longer period. It uses non-volatile flash technology that is capable of storing your data for long periods. They take the power directly from the USB port to be operated.

How can we use a pen drive or flash drive?
  • We can store files, documents, pictures, videos, and other data.
  • We can use a pen drive or flash drive to install antivirus software, do windows recovery, troubleshooting, etc.
  • You can boot the PC from a pen drive or flash drive.
  • You can install Windows from a pen drive or flash drive.
  • You can also use a pen drive or flash drive for backup.
Which should we choose?
If you want a normal pen drive, you can take any pen drive, but if you want a drive that is the fastest and can store your data for a long time, you can choose a 3.1 flash drive.
