Disconnecting after USB charging

First, I apologise in advance if I use the wrong terminology or if this is a really stupid question!

I always charge using the USB cable and having thoroughly read all the posts on here about the dangers of not disconnecting properly, I click the icon in the taskbar - it says 'Safely Remove Hardware' when the cursor hovers over it. But there are two different ways of doing this depending on whether I use a single or double click on the icon.


1. If I click the icon once, a box pops up that says ' Safely remove USB mass storage device - Drives (F:,G:,H:,I)'. If I click inside that box a window opens telling me it is safe to remove the device.

2. If I double click the icon in the taskbar a small window opens that lists devices to stop. In this case it only has 'USB Mass Storage Device' so I click the stop button and then I get a list of the Drives (F to I) but can only click on one drive to stop it before getting the message Safe to Remove Hardware.


So, which is the best method to use to disconnect/safely remove the reader (single or double click on icon) or does it not matter?

Thanks for reading, I hope I have explained clearly.



Oh, I only have 78 books on the reader, all on the main memory and there are no other memory cards installed or formatted.

I should also tell you that I disabled the option for the Reader Library to open automatically whenever I connect the reader.
