Working with USB Sticks or external Hard Disk in Windows Vista
There is no longer a floppy-drive available on most new computers. The floppy disk has gradually been replaced by the USB stick (also known as memory stick) and the external hard disk drive. The USB stick is about the size of a stick of chewing gum. It is a lightweight, removable data storage device that connects directly to the USB port of your computer. You can store files and folders just as easily on a USB stick as you do on your hard drive. You can backup important files for safe-keeping. It is also very easy to transfer files to another computer. This short guide will help you learn how to work with a USB stick and an external hard disk drive in Windows Vista.
The guide contains 22 pages. You can open and print this PDF file using the free program Adobe Reader. You can read more about Adobe Reader here. |
