ReadyNAS 102 - How to eject USB drive?

Question

Hi - I am just starting to use a ReadyNAS 102 and have connected an external hard drive to one of the USB ports on the back. The drive was recognized on the ReadyCloud and Admin pages, and everything seems ok. I'm wondering, though, how to remove/eject the drive. There doesn't seem to be any method similar to what you would do to eject a drive on a Windows machine.

Thanks!

Bruce

Go to the Admin page "System" and click on the "Gearwheel" next to the USB drive&nbsp;

Thank you! And after clicking the eject option should there be a confirmation that it's OK to unplug the drive? I don't see any message, as you get in Windows ("safe to remove drive").&nbsp;Bruce

No but it will disappear from the "System" page display

Ah! It did disappear from the Shares page, but it took a while - I was away for a while and had to sign back in - that's when it was gone. Maybe it would have gone away sooner if I had refreshed the page? Thanks!
