What storage devices contains no moving parts and connect directly to a USB port?
Assuming you mean a data-storage device (for use with computers) then the most clear cut answer would be a CD-ROM or a DVD-ROM, neither of which have any moving parts by themselves. The disc-reader however would have moving parts which may negate the idea of a stationary storage device.

How many word documents will 4gb thumb drive hold?
That depends on the size of the files you want to put on it.
If you're only storing say Microsoft Word files on it, you could store over 10,000 2 page documents on it.
If you're storing music files, assuming an average of 5 megs per song you could throw 800 files on it.
If you're storing video files from Brazzer's, you could store ten 30-minute movies. Don't ask me how I know that...
If you're ripping a DVD, a single layer one at that, you might be able to get the whole movie on the stick. But that'd just be the movie, not the info you'd need to build the disc menu, extra features, etc.
Personally with as cheap as 16 and 32 gig sticks are becoming, I'd recommend getting one of those instead of a 4 gig.

How do you save your work on a USB?
* First, you plug in the usb hard drive. * The AutoPlay (I don't know what it's called but that's what it's called) should appear. * Then click on Open Folder to view files using Windows Explorer * After that, something else will appear. It should say USB DISK (F:) (I suggest that you make this smaller) * Then right click on Start (at the bottom right corner). Right click, not left click. * Next, click on Explore. * The Start Menu will appear. * Let's say you want to save a document. Click on Documents.
* You may have to put the USB DISK (F:) and the Start menu on opposite sides. * Now all you have to do is drag and drop the document to the USB DISK (F:). And you're all done! It's that easy! YAY!!!!!!

How many usb port on dell vostro 1014?
There is no minimum or required number for USB ports on a laptop. Depending on the age and design of the laptop, it could be anywhere from zero to ten.
I have seen only 2 USB ports on older laptops, most of the new ones atleast have 4 USB ports. Netbooks(10" & 11") have not more than 2 USB ports. If in anycase you need more USB ports, you could buy an USB hub for as less as 10$, which will add 4 more ports to your laptop.
