Wonder if Spotlight is indexing the drive or some other related background task?

After having copied a bunch of files to your thumb drive, finder is usually 
still busy after the screen says the process is done. You can verify this by 
inserting the thumb drive so that it mounts, and then ejecting it. You may find 
that in that case, you only have to eject just once. If that is true, then you 
know the cause of your problem. Smart drive under dos  did the same thing, and 
windows does it that way too, at least by default, as far as my experience goes.

Hi Guys.
I have had an annoying thing recurring. I am using Lion, and just about every 
time I eject a thumb drive, I have to do it twice because the first time I get 
an error saying that Finder is using it. This is after I have copied a lot of 
files or updated them to the thumb drive. I have tried going to Finder first, 
and most of the time, I have the same thing happen? What's the best way to do 
this?
