• There are two most widely used ways, and it works
  fine every time. First, is pretty straightforward
  and is a 2 step procedure. The requirement is a
  DVD drive in your laptop, desktop or an external
  DVD drive that can run your DVDs and CDs. The USB
  ports are ubiquitous nowadays and you would
  already have at least 2 of them. You are supposed
  to insert your DVD into your drive, and the USB
  stick to any one of your USB ports.
• Then, you must go ahead and click on the DVD
  drive that is now active on your computer. On
  opening it, you must be able to select all the
  files using CtrlA or you can manually select
  desired files with CtrlLeft Click on that
  filename. Then, you hit Right Click and choose
  Copy or do so by pressing CtrlC. The next step
  is the last step, that is, CtrlV, at the desired
  location, which in this case is your pen drive or
  USB stick. It must be shown as removable media
  and you can also directly send your files to
  removable media, after the Right Click option
  above, instead of choosing to Copy first.

• Second is the option that allows you to copy DVD
  to USB in three steps. Yes, that is one more than
  before, but don't think it is futile just yet.
  This additional step ensures that the format of
  the files is readable by your media player, and
  sometimes can also let you choose the settings of
  the video when ripping it off the DVD, instead of
  simple copy and paste. These are useful features
  that come with software like DVDFab DVD
  Copy/Ripper. In this case, you insert the DVD
  into the drive, insert the USB into the port,
  then go ahead with the software, and select the
  input location and the output location as DVD
  drive and USB stick. In the middle is the
  intermediate step that allows you to seamlessly
  copy the contents of the DVD to your USB via the
  ripper. The ripper decrypts the protection and
  copies the contents in a format that is already
  encoded in the DVD, then it decodes it into a
  format like mp4 or avi that any media player can
  play, then it copies that file to the output
  location or the USB stick. In some cases, you
  might want to check the space on your USB stick
  before trying to copy them.

• There are some other ways too. One of
  them makes a DVD Rip for USB. This is a
  proprietary feature that some DVD ripper software
  keeps as a predefined item in its list of
  presets. This should format the output files such
  that it is usable later. In some cases, the DVD
  has ISO files or you would prefer to save the
  contents as an ISO image. In some cases, you
  might want to convert it into a Blu-ray quality,
  HD quality or something else before you copy DVD
  to USB. This can be done using the intermediate
  step explained before and it can be chosen easily
  from drop-down menus provided by the software. In
  another case, you can choose the USB stick, and
  the software or the DVD ripper shall convert them
  to the proper format automatically without asking
  you to manually set something at all.
• Thus, there are many ways you can carry
  your stuff from those old DVDs in your pen drives
  that come now in sizes of 128GBs as well. Thus,
  you can comfortably keep them and even store them
  forever as digital files on your hard disk. Once,
  done you does not need the DVD drive anymore, so
  you can go ahead and return it to your neighbor.
