Disconnecting the USB cable

If your device is connected to your computer as a removable drive or volume, you must safely disconnect your device from your computer to avoid data loss. If your device is connected to your Windows® computer as a portable device, it is not necessary to safely disconnect.

  1. Complete an action:

    • For Windows computers, select the Safely Remove Hardware icon in the system tray and select your device.

    • For Mac® computers, drag the volume icon to the rubbish bin.

  2. Disconnect the cable from your computer.
