Use an old piece of technology
Today I used a floppy drive to transfer my data from my home to my school account. To be honest it was harder that a USB because USB stores far more data then a floppy drive. A floppy drive can only store 2 MB of data. By using a floppy drive I realized the importance of technology in our lives. Floppies are much harder to use than the modern technology and they are not realiable, you can lose data easily. In contrast USB's are much more realiable and data can not be lost. Floppy has a bigger size than a USB in volume, therefore carring floppy is harder than carring USB. You will mostly find only one colour of floppy (black) and in only one shape but for USB you will find many colours and many designs.
Now-a-days people like to listen to the music (mp3,mp4) now haveing a Floppy will not help them but if you have a flash drive you can at least take a listen to the music.A floppy and a USB both work in the same manner, except that one (USB) can hold more information then other. Both can be used to write and erase data as much as you want. The speed of Storing data in USB is much faster then storing data in a floppy drive. To conclude in speed, capacity, size and reliability USB (modern tecnology) is far better than floppy (old technology). Lets face it, the floppy drive is slower and you can damage and loss data easily, and frankly they just aren’t as cool to use!

Floppy disks and USB flash drives are not necessarily work in the same manner to store data. Floppy disks have a magnetic medium to store data on (a magnetic disk), while flash drives use flash memory to store data. Oh, and floppy disks do come in a few different colours than just black ;)
Just so you know
