May I add his drive is a 500GB GoFlex Media drive which I gave him in trade
for a Go Flex 1TB drive. The 1TB's not done it yet on my system but even
after formatting, the other one has. I do have a 300GB CGate drive that has
done this very thing, but it's not a GoFlex. This one actually plugs via
USB and, the electrical wall outlet.
It's also important to note that Ben's drive is partitioned two ways: each
equally 250GB. The first partition is Extended Journaled case sensitive,
and the second is MS Dos Fat. the first partition is being used with Time
Machine. The second is both for mac and windows platform storage.
I think both volumes became unmounted when he got the notification.
Chris.

Subject: False notification of disc ejection
I just got a Seagate drive from BestBuy. I wasn't doing a darn thing with
the drive, yet a notification arose saying that it's not wise to unplug a
drive without safely ejecting it. Apparently Chris Gilland has also had this
problem with specifically his Seagate drives. Has anybody had this problem?
I am almost certain that it's not a defective drive being that someone else
has also encountered it.
Thanks,
Ben
