Not sure if there are any other risks but this is extremely useful!

Of course, I found this out by complete accident (forgot to eject) but this may change how I use my DR1000s!
I am not sure what the caching policy is of the file-system used on the SD card. Maybe not all data is written right away. I would use this 'feature' with care.
