Porting data to another machine, however, may be tricky. As such, if you’re using an SD card purely on one device, it will do the job well. It’s usually something a laptop will have rather than a PC. Unlike USB drives, an SD card slot isn’t a guarantee on most machines.

SD cards are in a similar vein to USB sticks but are a little more conditional regarding whether you can put them into a PC or not. It’s easy to carry with you, stores quite a lot of data, and can be plugged into any computer with a USB port (which is most!). Simply plug one into a USB port, open it on your computer, then drag files onto the stick itself. USB sticks are one of the more trustworthy ways of storing items from the computer.
