Flash drive capabilities depends on two things. 1. USB Interface 2. Opperating System -1- USB (Universal Serial Bus) It's basically a serial bus standard to interface devices. The basis is to allow devices to connect directly to the computer while its powered on and appear to be semi seamless. Plugging in a device while a computer is on is called Hot Swapping. Every single computer created in the past 7-8 years will have USB connections on them, so unless you are running a P1 or a 386 you should have no problem with this part. Identifying a USB port is very easy too, its a slim opening on the machine itself, and easily identified. http://static.howstuffworks.com/gifusb4.jpg That image is a pretty decent representation of what a USB port on the computer looks like. -2- Operating System If you are using Windows XP or newer, you will have no problems plugging in a flash drive. If you are using Windows 2000 or Windows 98 you -may- need special drivers to get it to work properly. A flash drive purchased from the store should give you everything you need.
