    Hints & Tips

USB flash drives
These devices are extremely popular and with good reason. Whether you use yours for backing up, sharing files or carrying company presentations with you, USB flash drives are very convenient but, they do have some potential problems.

We get a significant number of calls from users with corrupt data after what appears to be normal use. To limit the chances of losing your data you should always power down removable USB devices before unplugging them from a PC that is still switched on. Simply left click the Safely Remove Hardware Icon in your System Tray and select your USB flash drive to power it down before removing it. This will ensure all data is completely written before you remove it
