I just purchased a g815 logitech keyboard from a thrift store and was wondering if it could effect my computer in any way?
Not all that computer/tech savvy so apologies if it's a dumb question
Appreciate any help!

if it has the capacity to store files, yes.

get a regular keyboard if this is a serious concern for you

I assume this would be the onboard memory?
