Make sure memory media is oriented properly before you insert it. If 
you insert the media in wrong direction, you may not be able to remove 
it.
When inserting memory media, do not touch the metal contacts. You 
could expose the storage area to static electricity, which can destroy 
data.
Do not turn the computer off or switch to Sleep Mode or Hibernation 
Mode while files are being copied - doing so may cause data to be lost.
