copying documents to flash drive

I've tried repeatedly to copy my "documents" folder from my Mac to a flash drive, and each time a number of the documents on the flash drive turn out to have been corrupted. Is there any way to avoid this?

The quality of most USB sticks is extremely poor. I don't trust any USB stick to keep my data intact. Try using another brand of USB stick or use a USB hard drive/SSD instead.
