Do people still use them frequently or do they store more data in clouds or on hard drives these days?
I have a USB stick and it has important things on it.

I want to know how to send a long video from my laptop to my phone. I've just seen that there's a service like WeTransfer where I can easily send longer videos. Now my question is: Is this safe? Can anyone see this besides me?
Are there external hard drives that can be plugged directly into a USB C slot without a cable or are there even Bluetooth external hard drives? To be honest, I don't want to deal with a tangled mess of cables, but I need a hard drive to install programs on.
Hi guys, Is it normal that my right Airpot (3rd generation) makes a noise when it is off and I insert it?
Good bye, I wanted to upgrade from an HDD to an SSD and noticed that my laptop's hard drive was getting quite hot due to the processor (they're right next to each other). Is this a problem for the SSD (Samsung 870 QVO)?
Hello, I'm currently in the process of buying an iPad for high school and wanted to ask if 64 GB is enough on an iPad. Does anyone have any experience? LG
Clearly, they regularly use either as a private backup or to reinstall Windows. These things are as vital as any coffee in the morning xd
I’m not private, I’m professional! Quasi…
I also sell USB sticks professionally – in large numbers to corporate customers!
The companies then buy, for example, 5,000 USB sticks (printed with company logo and web address), where the akteulle catalogue is already recorded as pdf. This is then distributed to trade fairs or to customers > Promotional items!
I already had a violin maker who also repairs violin. The reperature is very complex and very expensive! He documents every step of work with photos, grabs them on the USB sticks, which the customer then receives together with the invoice.
The USB stick is made of wood and there is also its branding (< in the truest sense of the word). Then the work for the customer is also comprehensible and it looks more high-quality than a burned CD-R.
And such a USB stick might also have added value for the customer. It’s nice!
The last time I needed a USB stick when I reinstalled my laptop. I’ve had all the current drivers and some tools on it so I can get back to the internet with my laptop. Practical / easy!
Yeah.
Standard tools for emergencies:
– Macrium Reflect Emergency Stick (Backups)
– Ventoy with div. Images
– Windows installation stick
– Desinfec’t
– Hiren’s Boot CD
As long as there are no “important data” and you make backups, this is also O.K.
USB sticks and memory cards are intended for data transport and emergency/installation media. Not as a data archive. That’s too common.
I use both – a cloud and an external SSD.
I use the cloud for photos and other smaller files that I can access from all devices.
The SSD serves primarily as a storage location for larger files, but is also practical if I want to quickly transfer something from one to another. My Internet connection does not allow fast data transfer.
Cool question by the way.
Of course, a USB stick is a disk in pure form: small, enough storage space and always there.
I still use USB sticks regularly. This has several reasons:
1. I used them for school. Having a PowerPoint in the cloud was always a bit risky.
Two. Transfer files between two devices: I can find faster than download high and back
3. Internet: I don’t have the Internet and would like to transfer files between devices.
4. Devices: Some devices (e.g. Hifi systems) can hold only USB sticks and not files from the internet.
These things have different fields of application.
Hard disks are more for large amounts of data you want to have locally.
Cloud is convenient for larger amounts of data and has the advantage that you can access it immediately on different devices as long as you have internet.
USB sticks are practical for smaller amounts of data and fit into the pocket. For example, I have a small USB stick attached to my keychain and if I am on work and someone wants to give me a file or something, or I want to draw data from nem other PC that is a practical and fast way.
Use USB sticks up to 1 TB today. My important data is all based on it. And at home, I got a 6TB Nas on Raid 1 on a USV.
I don’t need a stupid cloud. All important of me is even available worldwide via my server. About my own internet connection.
I had already set up this with myself in 2000, then I had a small pc on the run that had connected via software Raid1 2 hard drives (WD Raptor). About Ngix I had created my own website where I had full access to my data. Thanks DYNDNS.org .
Who needs serious ne stupid cloud, are only Naive Kiddies who have no idea about your data.
As a car normal consumer rather less.
as computer scientists, the gold is coveted.
I have a USB stick at the keychain with Ventoy and a small selection of live systems and operating system installers.
In addition, I have a small m.2 NVMe SSD in a USB C case to use as an external SSD. I have them mainly on courses to copy the teaching materials for me.
The rest is on my native NAS.
I store my data for taking on external SSDs. I have my QNAPs at home for backup. I only rarely use USB sticks.
I use USB sticks and even hard drives for all my important documents and photos 🙂
Use yes, but only to install Windows. I don’t have any videos and pictures and documents in the cloud.
Yes, rarely but you can always use it.
I use the mini memory cards from my phone with an adapter.
