safely remove hardware

For things like flash drives, I have been told that you should click on the safely remove hardware icon on the task bar. Is this actually necessary? I've never had any problems with my flash drive, but I have an external hard drive, and I usually unplug it without clicking on safely remove hardware. What problems could this cause?

Thanks.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

But in the case of the harddrive, since it has spinning disks, if nothing is being written and I pull it out, nothing will happen?

Also, what will be the difference between running it in "optimize for quick removal" mode and "optimize for performance" mode?

There's nowhere I can't reach.
