O.K., just got introduced to and bought a SanDisk dual usb (A & C), downloaded the Memory Zone app, managed to do most of the basics prior to connecting the USB to the android.

Done for that part. Now:

*** HOW TO EJECT the USB? Am not going to pull it out until somebody here or Google or YouTube tells me to do it or HOW to get to the EJECT stage of things!

1. Whew YouTube - Settings, Device Maintenance, Storage, Storage Settings, USB Drive, Unmounted

4. OK, this is not working for me. Ended up with "Device not detected."

7. I didn't watch the video, but. ..

On both of my Samsung devices, it's in the 'Storage' section of 'Settings'. The exact menu hierarchy varies with the flavor of Android.

In 'Storage', you should see your USB drive, along with internal storage and SD drives. If you select the drive, you should have the option to 'Unmount'. On one of my devices, it's a text menu option named 'Unmount'; the other just has a down arrow symbol.

8. Thanks, yip, found it from the 2nd video below. "USB" then "Advanced" then "Unmount* - phew!

5. Were you able to successfully eject/unmount the drive? nt

6. Just now (I think), not from that first YouTube, now with this one: Needed to go to "Advanced" under

Storage, then click on Unmount. Thanks.

2. I was going to say legally, you have to give it 30 days notice.

But then I figured nobody likes a smart-ass.
