For many years I've been backing up important data from my PC hard drive to CDRs every 2-3 weeks, which is a bit of a bother because I have to select the data to back up each time, the process is time-consuming (in PC terms, it only only takes 5-10 minutes), and I've been reading about inexpensive flash memory devices that hold 1-2 GB and operate as an auxiliary drive. Questions: 1) is a flash drive a secure way to save important data, and 2) does it operate fully as another drive on the PC, i.e., can I just drag and drop files from the main drive to the flash drive, which I would then store in another physical location? Thanks.
