Solve : USB FLASH DRIVES FILE TRANSFER?

Answer»

HELLO,

Just a couple of questions. If I a transfer a folder or a single from an USB Flash to another in the same PC (i.e. from F to E,), is there anyway any registers are kept in my computer?

If I DELETE a file from my USB flash, where does the file go when it is deleted?

I appreciate your answers. By the way, this would be while working on Win XP.

Regards,

I'll try to make it simple.
Flash memory is built out of cells. Each cell may have charge of "0" (written), or "1" (empty).
Your flash card may look LIKE this:
11110001111
where "000" is your file.
When you delete a file, you simply change three cells charge from "000" to "111".
Now, your flash card look like this:
11111111111

As I said, this is just simply speaking.If you have no Recycle Bin on your flash drive, then I believe any FILES deleted are permanently deleted.  AFAIK, flash drives can have their own Recycle Bin, same as HARD drives.  My PNY flash drive has no Recycle Bin when I open it on my Win XP computer.  And, I don't know how to add a Recycle Bin to it.  However, I'm under the impression Recycle Bin can be added to flash drives.Good EXPLAINING Broni
