Buy this USB. It's tails compatible. And if u cant get a wifi connection buy this WiFi USB Adapter (also tails compatible). One you flash tails onto the USB, shut down ur comp, then turn back on & boot tails. Once you boot up, you'll see this image appear. Click on the + and create your persistent storage password. After that click start tails. Then go to
HAPPY TAILING!
There you have it. After following these steps you will be all set. Thats a complete walkthrough of what to do. If you have any other questions, I'll try my best to help, although with what I just provided, there shouldn't be a need for any questions what-so-ever.
