How to Drag a File to a Key Drive

A USB flash drive (sometimes referred to a thumb drive, pen drive or key drive) is a small, portable storage device that plugs directly into your computer's USB port. These types of storage devices provide an easy way to carry around a few gigabytes of data in your pocket or on your keychain. Adding data to the drives is just a matter of dragging and dropping the files to the device. Dragging your files to the key drive is extremely easy.
