The Safely Remove Hardware is 2 or 3 clicks with NO possibility of formating the device. Much better, safer and easier to me. It would take longer to open explorer & get to the device than left click on the Safely Remove Hardware icon a few times. |
One issue, however, is that if you want to read while charging in Windows 7, "Safely Remove Hardware" doesn't return the Kindle to its Home page - even after you've done the removal, the Kindle still displays the "USB Connected" page until you physically unplug the cable. Doing "Eject" from Windows Explorer, however, takes you back to the Home page so you can read while continuing to charge.
