USB stands for Universal Serial Bus. The birth of the custom USB flash drive is credited to Dr. Fujio Masuoka. He invented NOR and NAND Flash Memory while working for Toshiba. The release of the first removable drive was in 1984, using Masuoka?s NOR Flash Memory. It was in 1984 when he invented NOR Flash Memory, which is the predecessor to NAND Flash Memory. NOR Flash Memory has long erase and write times but provides full address and data buses. This allows for random access to any memory location. It?s endurance is about 10,000 to 1,000,000 erase cycles. NOR based flash was the basis for early removable media.

In 1989, Toshiba announced the release of NAND flash. This was a ground-breaking moment in the history of flash drives. It has faster erase and write times, and requires a smaller chip are per cell. This allows for greater storage capacities and lower costs than NOR Flash Memory. NAND Flash Memory is also more durable than NOR Flash Memory.
