Flash Memory

A Flash drive is a catch-all term referring to devices which store data through erasing and reprogramming information electrically. NAND flash memory, introduced by Toshiba in 1989, is used in the bulk of these devices today. The first flash memory cards were released in 1995 with the introduction of the Smartmedia card format. A slew of other flash based formats such as MultiMediaCard, Secure Digital, Memory Stick, and xD-Picture Card soon followed. As it stands today, most memory cards, USB drives, and Solid State Drives utilize NAND flash memory. Solid state drives fulfill the same role as traditional hard drives, but utilize flash-based memory chips as opposed to a series of mechanical components found in hard drives. Solid state drives, along with every other flash memory device, are much more reliable due to its compact design and lack of moving parts.
