Amazing to see!
By this point do USB sticks make sense anymore as opposed to a super fast SSD inside an enclosure? It seems like the former hasn't seen any technical progress in years either
I usually have one USB stick tied to my keys, just in case. I can't imagine carrying an enclosed SSD everywhere with me.
They can be failry small though, no? The NVME form factor allows for something that is maybe two times longer than a usual USB stick, so it's still reasonably small and a tad harder to lose
I've had SD cards fail catastrophically though, unlike ssds and hdds.
