Sceengrab External hard drives, MP3 players, mobile phones and digital cameras; the list of devices connected to your PC via USB is endless. It’s no wonder then that were easily confused over what’s connected, let alone to which port. So if you have an external hard drive which needs removing safely, the last thing you want to do is tug at the wrong cable, it’s important to know what’s connected.

USBDeview 1.17 is a free yet handy tool that shows you which devices that are connected to your machine, preventing you from pulling out the wrong device. It’s showed to you clearly so there is no room for error, so there’s no need to worry when removing any device.
