When you are not using a USB drive, do you leave it plugged in?

^Some people answer yes, some say no. It's really a matter of preference. It *should* not harm your dongle one bit, but if you want to unplug it, go right ahead. I leave mine plugged in because I have several USB plugs and am not in dire need of that particular spot.

No need, it draws little power, takes up minimal system resources, and can be disabled with software when I'm done playing.

Also I have twice as many USB ports than USB devices, so I won't have to remove it to plug in something else either.
