*USB FLASH DRIVES* –>
(a ‘USB flash drive’ (also known under a variety of other names) is a ‘data storage device’ that includes ‘flash memory’ with an ‘integrated universal serial bus (USB) interface’)
(‘USB flash drives’ were invented by ‘amir ban’, ‘dov moran’, and ‘oron ogdan’ (all of the ‘israeli’ company ‘m-systems’), who filed “US patent 6148354” in ‘april 1999’)
(can citizens of other ‘countries apply for US “patents” if they feel that their own government would take advantage of their ‘inventions’ if they tried filing a patent with them?)
(as of ‘january 2013’, drives of up to ‘512 gigabytes’ (‘GB’) were available)
(get me this!)
(though ‘cloud storage’ easily trumps ‘external storage devices’)
.
(a ‘flash chip’ is used to read the contents of a single cell, but it can write entire block of ‘cells’)
