On a computing device making use of removable storage media, the mechanical nature of the process for removing of the media enables the device to detect the beginning of this process before it reaches the point where the removable media has been removed to the extent that it is no longer operable. The minimum time taken to reach this point from the detection of the beginning of the process is with the present invention used to compute the size a data chunk which is guaranteed to be completely written provided the write begins before the start of removal is detected. By breaking down all lengthy write operations into chunks which can be written within this minimum time period, the risk of corruption of the removable media and the loss of data can be eliminated.
