I just wait till I shut the laptop off then remove it. I've lost stuff just by yanking it out.

If you are copying files from it, yank whenever you want.
If you are copying files TO it, stop it first. I've been too eager to remove it and lost files before. Just like Rsv1000R said, if you're going to pull out without stopping, don't store anything you can't afford to lose.
