Flash Memory

Flash memory is a type of digital storage that retains data even when the power is turned off. It’s commonly used in USB drives, smartphones, and solid-state drives (SSDs) due to its ability to read and write data quickly. Unlike traditional hard drives, flash memory has no moving parts, making it more durable and energy-efficient. It stores data in interconnected memory cells, which can be electrically erased and reprogrammed, allowing for fast data access and transfer. This technology has become essential for portable electronics and computing devices, enhancing speed and reliability in data storage.
