Backup to thumb drive software

The USB flash drive is a unique kind of PC storage toy. The keychain-size flash drive needs no batteries and has no moving parts! Instead, the USB flash drive uses the same method that digital cameras use to store images.

Your files are stored on memory cards (either removable cards or built-in memory inside the unit).
