Thank you.

It's nothing to worry about, it's for removable devices that lets you

stop
them, then remove them properly while the computer is running, instead

of
having to shut down the computer to remove the device. It makes sure the
computer isn't accessing the device while you're yanking it out, which

could
cause data corruption.

You can pretty much ignore the message.

Yes It does. That does explain why it's being called a
storage device, but why am I getting an alert that the
hardware can be safely removed? The alert stays in the
notification area. I'm lost. Thanks

I keep getting an alert on my notification bar that
hardware can now be safely removed. The hardware it's
referring to is my printer. It refers to a mass storage
device and a storage usb device which it calls generic
volume(F What's up with that?

Does your printer have a card reader?
