The device shows up as a drive on your desktop and then you manually drag all the files you want backed up, to the drive. Voila! You now have a copy of all your files.<\/p>\n<p>An external drive is a simple and relatively cost-effective option as long as you remember to do it regularly and provided that the disaster that destroys your computer doesn\u2019t also destroy the hard drive sitting right next to it (ie if your computer is destroyed in a house fire, chances are your external hard drive will be too). The other drawback to an external drive is that you&#8217;re unlikely the take it with you to work or on vacations, so access to your data may be limited if your device fails when you\u2019re not physically in the same location as your external drive.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-3888\" src=\"https:\/\/www.worldline.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/woman-plugging-a-usb-flash-drive-into-her-laptop-WB9C8U4-300x157.jpg\" alt=\"Woman plugging a USB drive into her laptop, technology and data storage concept\" width=\"300\" height=\"157\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.worldline.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/woman-plugging-a-usb-flash-drive-into-her-laptop-WB9C8U4-300x157.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.worldline.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/woman-plugging-a-usb-flash-drive-into-her-laptop-WB9C8U4-768x402.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.worldline.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/woman-plugging-a-usb-flash-drive-into-her-laptop-WB9C8U4-1024x536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.worldline.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/woman-plugging-a-usb-flash-drive-into-her-laptop-WB9C8U4-500x262.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.worldline.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/woman-plugging-a-usb-flash-drive-into-her-laptop-WB9C8U4.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>A thumb drive, or USB flash drive, is a smaller, and hence more portable,\u00a0external storage\u00a0option.
