Most Pen Drive use a ordinary type-A USB connection allowing plugging into a port on a personal computer, but drives for other interfaces also exist. In 1999 – 2000, pen drives ware invented by Amir Ban, Dov Moran and Oron Ogdan, all of the Israeli company M-Systems. The first Pen Drive was manufactured in early 2000 by a company called Trek with product Thumbkey, shortly followed by M-systems (now SanDisk) with their DiskonKey drive. Pen Drive combines a number of older technologies, among subordinate cost, subordinate power expenditure and tiny size made possible by advances in C.P.U technology. In 2000, IBM and Trek Technology began selling the first USB flash drives. Starting commercially at memory levels in the kilobyte range, memory capacity skyrocketed over the next several years into the multi-gigabyte level. Now a day’s Pen Drive / USB flash drives is a most popular device of all around the world. Every computer expert or under expert use it for data transfer and data storage. It has made the world a very different place. Latest uses and adaptations come almost each year, and the demand is increasing with each new technology.
