a. Find your wallet file on the Electrum folder and sent it to each one of your flash drives.

On windows:
  • Go to C:/Users/YourUserName/AppData/Roaming/Electrum/wallets

On Mac:
  • Open Finder
  • Go to folder (shift+cmd+G) and type ~/.electrum

On Linux:
  • Home Folder
  • Go -> Location and type ~/.electrum

b. Save your backup seed on a txt file and sent it to your flash drives.

Use file menu > save copy to save a copy of your wallet file.

The above answers are correct of course, but Electrum is designed so that you ONLY need your SEED to get everything back on any computer in the world.
