Thumb drives vs. Flash drives?

Design and Construction
Most thumb drives come with a protective cap to cover the USB connector, while many flash drives feature a retractable USB connector. The way the USB connector is hidden in a thumb drive matters a lot for the lifespan of the device, since you don't want dust and other particles to get inside.We offer multiple options for connector protection - from foldable metal cards to swivel drivesand wooden caps. While choosing the protection type, consider the conditions most of the thumb drives would be used in (construction sites, moisture, office space, etc).

Flash drives vs SD cards
Both thumb drives and SD cards are designed to be compact, lightweight, and ultra-portable. However, SD cards are less straightforward to handle and operate - and are usually not meant to be carried around on a daily basis.Thumb drives are generally a bit larger in size - because they contain both the flash memory chip (that is the SD card) and its' protective enclosure. In other words, SD cards are flash memory drives without a convenient or original protective case.Thumb drives come with a USB connector, making them ideal for transferring files between computers or connecting to a variety of devices such as game consoles, printers, or car stereos.SD cards, on the other hand, are plain and small and are meant to be inserted into special memory card slots. SD cards' connectors are exposed - this design makes them less robust to physical damage and requires careful handling. They are mostly used in cameras, smartphones, and tablets.
