They are much more practical than external drives. Yes, a good external is arguably just as portable, but unless you have a solid state External HD, they are more fragile.
A lot of decent external HDs require power, flash drives are entirely usb dependent.
The other issue is, what are you storing. For full data backups, an external drive is the way to go. But if you just want convenient file access and transfer ability, a flash is better. They are more cross-compatible, and quicker to access.
When you factor in size, power requirement, and ease of use, yes a flash might be more expensive(per storage space), but it can be very worth it.

Buying flash drives like this is just a waste of cash. I think they’re impractical. Just go get an external HDD then. It’s still portable and has loads of memory.
