So almost everyone now knows what a pen or flash drive and has at least one. But do you know about the different things you can do? I personally had no idea about the amazing different styles, shapes and uses. I thought I'd create a random list and share it with you.
1. The transport of personal data such as documents, photos and videos and transfer between computers. This is probably the most common use for USB flash drives, whether theirCapacity is 16 MB or 16 GB.
2. Running software and applications, especially with the data stored on them combined. This is great with stand-alone programs like VLC Media Player, since they are quite independent of any operating system. (VLC is the best video program there in my opinion)
3. Save and access to performance data, especially games saved. This is very popular with PlayStation and its flash memory cards.
4. Restart your system. Who needs floppies or ridiculousRecovery CDs if you have a nice, memory stick bootable? Most of them come for Linux topics, but you can own one for so as to make pretty much any operating system. All you need is a proper installation boot sector and change your BIOS.
5. You can walk your music library. This is especially nice if you make it a car or home stereo system that has a USB port to connect.
6. Their actual music listening device. iPods and MP3 players are nothing more than USB flash drives equipped withHeadphones and audio software to run.
7.Storing and medical records, which can save your life in an emergency. Medical flash drives are specialized recipes for this with detailed records of complaints and allergies. So, if a disaster occurs, quick and efficient patient care should be ensured.
8. Increasing disk cache. Add virtual memory from your USB storage, you can run your system and applications much smoother. In fact, there are memorySticks equipped specifically for ReadyBoost in Windows Vista.
9. How about intelligence? Industrial, intelligence, private investigation, you name it. I do not recommend this use but secure flash drives, it should be pretty effective. After all, some of them are proud of bulletproof housing, government standard data encryption and biometric fingerprint.
10.Running or transfer of anti-virus programs and repair. You can rescue your machine fromthat afflict infecting your system and files. Of course you can also use a virus to a memory stick but let's not think about it.
11. Back up important data when improvements to your computer or try to repair it. Finally, it is a good feeling to format the entire hard drive.
12. Marketing and promotion. Whether you are a big company or self-employed individual brand, you can use USB sticks with your name include content and provide advertisingthem to your (potential) customers. Artists or labels have distributed species choose songs to create customized, especially during concerts, and fast food chains have consumer USB drives connected hamburgers or Coke formed flashing her.
13. Just have fun! In addition to fast food, there is much more insane are memory sticks that big companies and cheerful gag gifts (while still useful) to make. My favorites are probably humping dogs, guitar and USB ChiliPeppers.
