As a recent graduate we rarely use usb drives as onedrive usually comes with our school's Microsoft account. We don't want to lose our thesis to a lost usb drive.

I have a usb key on my keychain, along with a multi tool and my keys, in one of those Neat keychains that spans out when in use tucked away when not needed. If I lose my Keys I have bigger problems than losing the usb drive. Where I am internet is ‘meh’. The usbdrive is the backup when the internet takes a dump.

Also I use it to install operating systems on my PC’s. Super handy to not have to run around the house looking for one big enough to flash an ISO to.
