OT: card reader vs direct USB

[Alan Cohen]

I have several devices (audio recorder, camera) that can I connect to my
box via USB.

Would it be safer (ie: less static electricity problems) to remove their
memory cards and put them in a card reader? In general, what is the
rationale for using a card reader?
