A "pen drive" as you called it has several other names. Usb drive, flash drive, jump drive, etc. They are simply portable memory that plugs into a USB port on a computer. As far as what you use it for, there are many options. You can use it to store simple documents, music, videos, and, with he right program installed on it, you can even store programs to use on any computer. The only limitation on them anymore is the memory. Obviously you can't store more than it can hold. Oh, and to avoid confusion, it is a flash drive, which means magnets won't affect it.
