Just a question about how to best unplug the pg usb drive that puts less strain on it.

Should I use the safely remove hardware icon in system tray on monitor or does it do the usb drive no hard just to unplug it without using above?

I got a kind of a pop noise yesterday when just unplugging, Probably just the drive suddenly stop spinning, I'd imagine the safely remove hardware stops it spinning before you unplug.

What do you thing is the best way for the usb drive and for that matter any external drive?

Thanks
Paddy
