Though Smart Media cards are a bit fragile, once they're in the slot, at least in my case, that's where it stays. Essentialy, it is used just like a hard drive. I also use the USB storage device as well, however, all the data is copied to the Smart Media card, then the drive can be removed. The USB sticks out and can be inadvertently hit, which could cause damage to the board the USB is attached to. You're really going to have fun exploring the 3000--I guarantee it!

It happened to Hank The Lurker. Someone bumped into the pen drive and bent the little connection on it. I don't believe any permanent damage was done though.
