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.
I've had SD cards fail catastrophically though, unlike ssds and hdds.
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
