Can cards be "safely reomved," or will doing so disable the entire reader?

Any card reader has the pop in, pop out feature. You press it in to make it stick, and again to pop it out. If it doesn't do that, you use a card like a flash drive.

We use this card reader just about weekly and it seems to be fine with the card removals. The normal card we use is an SD card. I have used other types over the two years I have owned the reader with no issues.

I'm not sure you can unless you edit the images and delete the images you do not wish to upload while the card is still in the camera.

I concur with Joe's response. Some formats can occasionally become problematic for certain operating systems. Ive encountered zero issues in any capacity; however, my mobile formatted sandisk UHS 1, 64gb card was volitile with or without the reader; whereas, as aformentioned this may simply validate the importance of media format, i.e., FAT32, EXFAT32, EXT 3, EXT 4, etc.The card reader's ability to r/w via Usb 2.0 interface is as should be expected.... working and without concern. If your still wondering about purchasing, for what it is worth, this is the best reader I have ever used, beating out the RDCR-11003 74 in one internal card reader I bought from newegg last year.

I think the other answer is correct. That when you are safely removing it is for the USB device. However, I did remove just the card and everything was fine.

Yes, it downloads the entire contents of the card regardless of whether it's already been previously downloaded.

It is NOT a card reader. This is a combination of an usb to usb-mini adapter, and a pen drive. In fact there are three pieces: a cover for the mini end, the adapter, and a 32GB pen drive stuck in the USB end of the adapter. A real nice little package - just don't loose it!

Used to read succesfully several other brands. I don't know about this kind of card

according to this, as long as the magnet is 1 inch away from the magnetic strip, it should be ok. I just opened my wallet and checked, if you place the card in the card slot so the magnetic strip is farther rather than close to the magnet, its about an inch away. I don't think that it will destroy the cards.http://www.creditcards.com/credit-card-news/demagnetization-ruin-credit-card-magnetic-stripe-1273.php

Yes, this card reader should allow you the access to read what is on the card

Good question. I was also concerned. So far no issue. I had a hotel room catd not work but not sure if that was the cause. I try not to have my cards touch the magnet.

I'm sorry Deborah..I haven't tried to plug a credit card reader into it. Yes, it's relatively easy to remove.

I can see no way to do this. The device reads cards but has no way to move data.

That's my understanding. I always delete after downloading. It feels risky but for me, the point of buying the safe was to free up space on my cards.

Well, there is 3 other answers where they put lots of cards in each slot, but I only put one per slot. I have in the past put two, back to back, but I wanted to be able to read the back so I only do one now. I have noticed that over time, many years, and when packed in a box/binder with at least 100 page protectors that cards may be difficult to remove and sometimes the slot tears. This was more of a problem if I had more than I card in the slot.

No, it will read and write to any card that will fit into one of its slots, as long as the card is in a format that is readable by your operating system (some phones format their cards in ways that are not directly readable by a computer).

Well, it's a manual device, so if you pull the card through at an extremely slow or fast rate of speed, you could have an issue with it. I can tell you we have never had an issue with the device reading cards.
