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.

You can go ahead and use flash Drives. Even 4 GB Flash Drives are available in the market these days for as low as 2500 INR.
But make sure that you buy a Flash Drive from a popular brand like Sandisk or Transend. Becuase these drives are more reliable.
Make sure that the Drives are placed in proper physical location becuase Humidity can get in and spoil your drive over age.

you don't want a wide quantity of area to reproduction the game saves onto a USB so i might want to bypass with a 4Gb merely because you may placed different information out of your computer in case you want to (so long because the flash force is formatted to FAT32 it is going to artwork on the PS3). I used to attempt this earlier I were given a exterior HDD.
