Do you use USBs for anything?

We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.
Yeah man back when Walmart was clearancing out those PNY 512GB USB SSDs I put like 12 of them into a software RAID0.
One of them promptly failed after trying to run CrystalDiskMark for a second time and I tossed them all in a drawer where they rest to this day
