Hi, I personally just unplug/shut off drives; as long as nothing is being
written to it, it's not a problem; I've never encountered one on 7 or vista,
but I did see it on xp from time to time.

HTH, D!J!X!

Subject: [ddots-l] O.t. Ejecting usb hard drive in windows 7

Hello,

I have a usb external drive where I back up my files to on a windows 7
machine. I cannot, for the life of me, figure out how to eject it through
windows. When I go to the "safely remove hardware" button, jaws reads the
name of the drive, (which is omar,) and says it's unavailable. I've tried to
find it by using the "open printers and devices" dialogue, but it's not
there. Any help would greatly be appreciated.

Thanks.

Omar Binno
