The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    if youre using windows and the drive is plugged in, just right click on the item or folder you want to move and go to *send to* and then click whatever name your computer gave to your drive.
    Or you could just open the flash drive window and drag and drop stuff onto it.

    If you've ever used a Floppy Disk, it works in basically the exact same way.

    Start > My Computer > Select your flash drive and open it.

    There you can drag, copy, delete files just like in Windows
