You know the USB flash drives, or thumb drives, or whatever you call them.  I see people copy things to it and just pull them out.  But before I pull them out, I always go to "Safely Remove Hardware" in the system tray and disable the drive first.  People say that I'm being too conservative and that I really don't need to do that.  What do you think?

You shouldn't listen to those folks, because there is a chance to get your flash drive burn if you don't go to "Safely Remove Hardware".

Once I lost an external drive this way.....
