                          1. @patentlypaul so, if you know about computer stuff, why do we need to safely remove a flash drive but not an external HD?

                            1. @mushi when I was a kid. Now I have a laptop running windows 8 but always use Ubuntu from external HDD which has more memory inside.

                          1. @patentlypaul I just mean that if your first computer in any way involved GB, that's a lot more recent than my first computer was.
