Micro SD card hot swap

[Suntan]

Anyone with a Transformer already, can you pull the micro SD card and plug it back in without powering down the tablet? Is there some menu activity for ?un-mounting? the card while powered on?

Thanks.

yes, right from the notifications area

there is a static notification if you have an sd card inserted. you can unmount directly from there.

very easy to swap out cards without powering down or removing battery like my N1

I found out by mistake you can unmount from the menu.

I powered down to insert a card and when the unit came up there was a notification about SD card inserted. I clicked the littke X to dismiss the notification but instead the TF unmounted my card. Pop the card out / in and all back to normal. I kinda wish there was a way to dismiss that notification because it seems to be easy, maybe too easy, to unmount the card.

Good to know.

Now, does anyone have any experience to explain how the SD card in the keyboard behaves (Or USB attached drives in general?

Do you have to specifically un-mount that before disconnecting the keyboard or what?
