USB flash drives are the modern floppies really. You can get one with a few GBs for literally pennies to the point where you can even get some "promotional" flash drives for free, similar to how in the past people gave out "promotional" (writing) pens for free. On the high end side you can have flash drives with as high as 2TB of storage (though the only one i've found is a bit bulky and the more regular sized one has "only" 1TB of storage).
No satisfying chunk sound though :-P.
- theandrewbailey 7y agoNo sound, but you get USB superposition in exchange. In 50 years, people will gather in nursing homes and reminisce about how bad type-A was.
- jharger 7y agoI'm curious what causes that strange phenomenon. You had a 50-50 chance to get it right, but it's the wrong way almost every time.
- theandrewbailey 7y agoBad angle or not enough force, based on how many times it worked the third time.
- 2a96eb7d685a49c 7y agoA 50 pack of 4 GB flash drives is over $100 on Amazon[0]. A 50 pack of DVD-RW is under $50.[1] [0] https://www.amazon.com/TOPSELL-Swivel-Memory-Drives-50/dp/B01MD13XJ4/ https://www.amazon.com/TOPSELL-Swivel-Memory-Drives-50/dp/B0...
