Thumb drive

 A thumb drive is a slang term for USB memory units that are small sized. Getting the name from their likeness to a human thumb, the drives are seen as the successor to the floppy disk and began to take hold in the early part of the 21st century. Thumb drives come in all sizes, from as small as eight megabytes to as large as multiple gigabytes. The only limit of a thumb drive's capacity is the physical limits of flash memory. Thumb drives don't operate any differently than any other unit of external storage, allowing users to install programs on them, use them as bootable devices and even install entire operating systems on the tiny devices.
