without performing any additional steps.

the driver automatically. However, some devices may require you to install the driver
before connecting. Check the documentation provided by the device’s manufacturer
before connecting the device.

Before disconnecting a USB storage device, make sure your computer has

ished transferring data to that device. Click the Safely Remove Hardware

fin
and Eject Media icon in the Windows notification area to remove the device
before disconnecting.

Note: If your USB device uses a power cord, connect the device to a power source before

connecting it. Otherwise, the device may not be recognized.
