Hello Paul, Yes, I have heard it's best to make sure the flash card is removed before turning the BrailleNote on. However, my data loss occurred when I exited the files in question, and then tried to re-enter them while the unit was still on. I was completing a homework assignment where I had to go from one document to another using the 1256 chord command.

Do you make sure your flash card is removed when you turn your unit on? I know people on this list advise not leaving a flash card in the unit when powering on.
