I have a digital camera that uses a usp connector. Can I connect and disconnect this to the computer without powering down the computer? Will it damage either the camera or the computer? Edit to add: Never mind, I just looked up hot swapping. I had forgotten about that and usb devices.
fwiw, yeah, it's fine. the only time you'll have a problem is if the system is still writing to the camera when you unplug it. even then, you could format the camera's media (you'd lose the pics though).
