I usually have several USB drives plugged into my PC, so when that screen comes up asking me which drive to remove, I sometimes pick the wrong choice. I have been lucky that my thumb drives have not been damaged by this, but I would rather not try to figure out how many times I can get away with it. I like this program because it displays the unique name, which I assigned to each USB drive to keep them separated. I find great benefit from USB Disk Eject.
