Toshiba portable hdd
3 Answers
I've bought a Toshiba STOR.E Canvio 2.5 inch portable HDD earlier today. I've connected it up to my PC via the supplied cable and installed the necessary back-up software onto the computer.
I don't want to play around backing up files tonight, so I want to disconnect the drive. The manual states that I should click on the "safely remove hardware and eject media" icon on the RH side of my taskbar, select the drive and click eject on the drive icon.
It's not working as I'm continually getting a message that a Windows program is using the drive and it's telling me to try again later. It's continued to do this for over an hour now.
How can I remove the drive? The manual states that data could be lost or the drive "physically damaged" if I just remove the USB cable.
Thank you
