The evolution of memory sticks has undergone rapid development. In the past, the size was quite large but the capacity was limited. Now, although the dimensions are getting more compact, the storage capacity is getting bigger.

The existence of memory sticks in everyday life facilitates various activities, especially in terms of portable data storage. If there were no memory sticks, we would still rely on diskettes or disks, which are cumbersome. Their large size, limited capacity, and susceptibility to damage make them less efficient than memory sticks.
