For storing information in the future, most business make use of Flash Memory Thumb Drives. With Flash Memory Thumb Drives, you can connect to a PC USB port in an attempt to back up your files on the go. While some provide data encryption in order to ensure that your data is secure should the flash memory get lost, others are not so much integrated with this security measure. They are generally rewritable, removable, and a lot smaller than the typical optical disc which makes them quite movable.

Businesses also make use of External Hard Drives. These drives can store as much information as the storage found on the computer.

Flash memory thumb drives: You can connect your flash memory thumb drive to a laptop's USB port to back up files on the way. Some USB thumb drives provide encryption to secure your data should the drive get lost or stolen.

External hard drives: A simple and relatively inexpensive way to add more storage is to connect an external hard disk drive to your computer. Any files stored on the hard drive but not elsewhere must be backed up.
