In the BIOS for your computer, there are SATA ports listed. There are enable/disable buttons (these don't affect Linux, which is still able to detect drives set in the BIOS as disabled). In the same interface, are "Hotplug" buttons. Turning this on, on the port, changes the PNP information, so the driver will be ready for the dynamic appearance of a drive in mid-session. One consequence of connecting a hot-plug (like an ESATA drive), is the Safely Remove icon, adds the new drive to the removal list. You can eject a HotPlug drive. Hopefully, this results in the drive spinning down. You can then physically remove the drive. USB sticks are (obviously) HotPlug. For a period of time, one of the Windows OSes decided to stop listing filesystems that did not need "Safely Remove" behavior, but the changes to that OS may have been reversed. I generally handle all my USB sticks through that interface (do an Eject or a Safely Remove, depending on which GUI I'm in at the time), and it is then safe to unplug. In windows, if you switch on HotPlug behavior on the SATA port having the Windows C: partition on it, this can result in the Windows C: or related materials, showing up in the Safely Remove menu. Do not panic, as the partition cannot be removed, since it is "busy", and attempts to Safely Remove C: will receive a notation indicating why it cannot be removed. If you don't like seeing your C: in that Safely Remove menu, then disable all the HotPlug items in the BIOS. Paul
