A USB flash drive pen is a convenient and useful way to carry a USB drive. In a pen that has a flash drive, the pen is generally divided into two parts. The front of the pen is the writing instrument, while the back of the pen holds the flash drive. The USB drive is a typical drive of this type that fully complies with the standards of the Universal Serial Bus Specification 2.0. The flash drive has a transfer rate of 480 million bits per second and is a fast and reliable drive. The body of the pen is made of a very strong metal that protects both the pen and the unit from defects or damage.
This makes a USB stick an extremely versatile device. Instead of having to carry a USB drive in a backpack or briefcase or around your neck or on a keychain and then have to reach for it or take it off your neck when you need it, the drive is available in the pen you need. are using by hand. If you are writing something you need to remember or signing an important document and you need immediate access to electronic files, these can be instantly available when your pen has a flash drive. Drive capacity is somewhat less than standalone drives with remaining sizes in the megabyte range. Also, the pen is usually a high-quality executive pen that writes fluently and elegantly.
One of the options for a USB stick is that it can be used as a promotional item, depending on the company you buy it from. Many companies that sell these types of pens and USB memory sticks will personalize the pen with the company logo on one or both sides of the pen and optionally preload the unit with marketing or promotional announcements. The unit can also have password protection as an option.
A special type of pen is an audio pen. This type of pen has a flash drive that is actually an MP3 player. It is specifically designed to store various MP3 and WMA file formats and has a small set of headphones attached. It is capable of storing three-hour files that can be played with a built-in 3.7-volt lithium battery. This can be recharged in just 30 minutes using a 5-volt USB charge.
Another option found in this type of pen is a built-in laser. This means that in addition to the flash drive and the pen, there is a laser beam coming out of the end of the pen. This can be useful for PowerPoint presentations or when you need to point to something on a wall or other surface. There seems to be no limit to what these pens can do!
