What is a USB Mass Storage Device Windows Driver?
A USB Mass Storage Device driver is software that allows a computer running Windows to communicate with and interact with USB storage devices such as USB flash drives, external hard drives, or SD card readers. These devices are typically classified as mass storage devices because they are used for storing large amounts of data, similar to hard drives or SSDs.
The USB Mass Storage Device driver enables the operating system to recognize the connected USB device, provide the necessary functionality (like reading and writing files), and manage the device as a drive in the system (usually assigned a drive letter like E:
or F:
).
