Hi
Today in market 256 MB, 512 MB, 1 GB, 2 GB, 4 GB, 8 GB, 16 GB and more pen drive available. I recommend 8 GB Pen drive as XP and other earlier Windows OS supports upto 8 GB only.
You can store data according to the capacity of pen drive you have i.e 1 GB Pendrive will able to store less than 1 GB but you can add 1.5 GB compressed data (1 GB after compression).
To copy large data more than capacity of Pen Drive you need to compress data using winzip extra compression technology. They way you can copy compressed zip or rar file onto your pen drive.
While restoring the data you can uncompress the data using winzip. This way you can store more data in pen drive.
