Removable media are transportable drives or disks that can be moved easily from one computer to another.
Most computers have a floppy drive that can read floppy disks. Many PCs also include drives that can read and write much larger amounts of data from other types of removable disks, like CD burners or Zip disks.
Remove the USBdrive by pulling it out of the port.
Under Devices with Removable Storage, there is a floppy drive A:, a CD drive I:, and several removabledisk drives, H:, J:, K:, and L:.
Remember also, if a flash drive was removed incorrectly (not with Safely Remove Hardware), the computer may fail to see a new device on that connector until after the computer has been rebooted.
As with Power Sources (see the UDG electrocells), it is not hard to imagine that a Standard for removablemedia would be established, and that in this arena, we would also find the standard acting as the goal of less developed technologies, and as a benchmark by which advanced technological concerns measured their advances.
Media should be able to exist in a vacuum without loss of data, and should be resistant to corrosion experienced in any Earthlike environment.
Media should not produce, or be subject to interference generated by insulated electrical lines, information cables, audio/visual displays, radio transmissions, or Electrocells.
