Flash drives and memory cards are the simplest way to move and store files. This guide explains what to look for and points you to USB storage in stock at ADGear.
How to Choose USB Storage
- Capacity: 32–64GB for documents; 128GB+ for media, photos and backups.
- USB version: USB 3.0/3.2 drives are far faster than USB 2.0 for large files.
- Connector: USB-A for PCs, USB-C for modern laptops and phones — dual-connector drives do both.
- Memory cards: for cameras and devices, match the speed class (e.g. U3/V30 for 4K video).
- Durability: metal-bodied drives last longer in a pocket or keyring.
