You can be confronted with a loss, a breakage, a breakdown, a theft or a bad manipulation of your storage device. For these five reasons we recommend that you secure your data.

1. Back up your data regularly. You can do a simple copy/paste of your data to another memory device. If you have a lot of data to back up regularly, opt for a synchronization software or backup software.

2. If you use your memory card in a USB card reader, eject the USB card reader before unplugging it from the USB port. In Windows, in the file explorer, right click on the USB card reader and click on Eject. On Mac, drag the drive displayed on the desktop to the trash.
