Can I eject my usb devices connected internal SATA hardrive...

OK we know that when you plug in a usb flash drive, you can click on the usb icon in your taskbar and then eject the device... Well well my internal sata HDD my OS running on shows in this list as well! I think it's a bug. Just a thought.

Hi, the fireballs
I don't know if this is a bug or not, but it is interesting.
I think that I him would NOT eject just in case. He'll probably just a mistake.
But as I said, I wouldn't do it. It could make your system unbootable.

If you want to report to Microsoft and see what they say, I included a link to a site for reporting something 'interesting '.

  • Therefore each SATA in my Win7 x 86 device listed as an ejector device when I'm ready to eject the USB device?

    Just at the moment where I thought that my Windows 7 Pro 32 bit environment worked perfectly, one day, I was ready to eject a USB device, I plugged, I saw ALL my devices SATA appearing alongside my USB items which have been plugged, including my C drive!

    Why is this?  How, all of a sudden all my readers (internal and external) appear as removable safely disks in my Win7 32 bit and not in my Win7 64-bit (yet)?  And how can I fix this problem so that my SATA devices are not among my USB devices?  One SATA device should be listed; and this is my backup of Master, plugged in a socket of SATA_A1, for which the SATA_A2 is shared by the eSATA plug.

    Here is a little information about my hard drives and the ATA channels to which they correspond:

    B: System reserved / F: 64 - bit Windows 7 - ATA Channel 0

    [Simple walk; reserved my win7 system 64-bit is not hidden to prevent my win7 32-bit access it.]

    X: Master Backup - ATA Channel 0

    [No misspelling; my Device Manager is showing TWO ATA Channel 0 s in the list of ATA/ATAPI IDE controllers.]

    C: 32-bit Windows 7 - ATA Channel 1

    [The main reader.]

    ATA Channel 1

    [Unknown as of yet what this ATA Channel 1 corresponds to.]

    Primary data G: - ATA Channel 2

    [For additional storage.]

    Secondary data H: - ATA Channel 3

    [For additional storage.]

    D: Blu - ray - ATA Channel 4

    E: DVD Burner - ATA Channel 5

    Now for my Win7 64-bit, Disc C installation (which is my first hard drive) represents my 64-bit Windows 7 and partitions B and F (for my second hard drive) my 32-bit Windows 7 with its partition system reserved for B.  Everything else is the same, but...

    ... In my Win7 64 bit environment, my IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers list has only 2 ATA channels; 0 and 1, no duplicates.  I haven't checked for correspondence of these channels, but I'll bet that channel 0 belongs to Drive X and 1 channel belongs to the C drive.

    How is it that, in my environment 32-bit, an ATA channel has been assigned to each disk in my machine, and how to disengage and remove the assignments without losing access to all these readers?  I don't have this problem before, and I can't determine when the problem first occurred.  I can't uninstall ATA channels 2, 3, 4 and 5 of my device manager, afraid that the corresponding drives disappear from my Explorer and becomes completely inaccessible.

    UPDATE:  He finds that, for some unknown reason, my SATA AHCI controller has been replaced, which displays all my readers as removable.

    First thing I did was make an update, I think it was almost a downgrade, to the standard AHCI driver provided by Windows.  All readers always displayed as removable.

    Then I did an update; This time, instructing the Device Manager to search for the driver accompanying DVDs of the card from my mother...

    ... And here!  After a restart, only displayed as removable drives are X Drive and everything I plug into the USB ports.  In my device manager, only ATA 0 and 1 (no duplicates) channels are displayed.

  • Cannot eject the USB device.

    Cannot eject the USB device. I don't see the icon to safely remove in the task bar.
    I tried to run the following path, but not luck.

    (C:\Windows\System32\rundll32.exe shell32.dll, Control_RunDLL hotplug.dll)

    The icon is hidden behind the small arrow in the lower right of your screen.  Click on that, and you will see a number of icons, which one will remove safe material one.  Be aware that unless you have a removable USB device connected, the icon will not be there.

  • Satellite A30 does not start with the USB device connected at boot time

    Hello

    I have a Satellite A30 and sometimes it does not start.
    After turning on, not even the BIOS starts.
    even if sometimes the BIOS starts, but the OS does not load.

    I figured out that its related to USB devices connected at boot time.
    If no USB devices are connected, it starts without a problem.
    Even if the start-up is suspended, as soon as you unplug start it BIOS USB devices.
    Its ok to connect USB devices later, once the system has started.
    I disabled "removable devices boot" and "network startup."
    just in case, but it makes no difference.

    BIOS is version the most recent (1.70) and it comes up with all kinds of USB devices.
    printer, mouse and (self-powered) external USB hard disk.

    Is this a known issue?
    There is no known workaround solution?

    Hello

    I put t know why this happens, but it has to do with the BIOS.
    The same thing happened on my old laptop. I couldn't start my unit while the USB printer has been turned on and connected.
    The only solution is to disconnect the external USB device during the boot process.

    RSY you should check if the order of boot in the BIOS has been on the HARD drive first.

  • Can I tie mulitple USB devices on my router now that Cloud Connect installed VUSB?

    Part of the Cisco Cloud Connect adds a program (Cisco VUSB) to your system when you add a USB printer. In the past, you could not put mulitple devices to the USB port on the router. This new software allows you to put more than one USB device to the USB port on the EA... routers?

    I don't think that there is an update for this one. I checked the release notes for the latest firmware (that of cisco connect cloud). It's always a usb for virtual USB device. Nothing new on the usb part. It will only be a printer OR a storage device, and not two or more.

  • Satellite Pro m USB devices connection problems

    Hello visitors and insiders.

    can someone help me, please? - or are the causes of the problems of programmed BIOS is not perfect?

    I put on the USB Ports (I tried all 3 Ports) after correct installation of the most recent drivers for devices and the BIOS and chipset.
    I tried MAGIX encoder by USB and PINNACLE for USB encoder - both signal-request-problems and the two could not shut down the system after connecting with USB and close with her current for USB device.

    I tried this on different WinXP installiations (multiboot) - but on all systems even.

    The same reaction has been, as I have connected a special CUSHION cooler for laptop with additional USB Ports.
    The CUSHION cooled - but the USB Ports do not work for all devices (devices I am familiar with the)
    Ports of origin of the laptop, has failed to TRIM, too). (worked directly devices: mouse, webcam, keyboard, drive hard usb)

    What should do? .. If anyone know Somethin ' help... I will be very happy.

    Thank you very much!!! (Sorry for my English is not perfect)

  • USB devices connected through a USB 2.0 Hub Stop Responding and are not recognized after Hub reconnects

    Recently, I have this strange problem where if I connect an additional USB device to one of my USB hubs, some of my devices stop working (especially my keyboard and mouse).

    I have two hubs Generic USB connected to my motherboard. My motherboard is an ASUS Rampage II Extreme X 58 who and chips ICH10. It has 4 USB ports in the front and 6 ports on the rear panel (all USB 2.0). I also have a USB 3 controller card that is connected to one of the PCI-E card to the Board of Directors.  I have the following problems:

    1. Connect a USB device to one of my USB hubs (or one of the USB ports on the front panel) causes some of my devices to stop working (especially my keyboard and mouse that are connected via a USB hub). It seems that crashes of USB controller.  If disconnect and reconnect my HUB, windows does not recognize devices connected to this hub.
    2. Now, after the crash, if unplugging the devices connected to the hub and connect it directly to one of the ports on the front or the back of the computer, Windows instantly recognizes!

    Now I'm confused what is the cause of this problem. I had the same computer since the release of the i7 and X 58 and never had this problem (although I don't remember if I used USB hubs right there).

    Why Windows to recognise the devices connected to the hub at the beginning, but not after the crash?

    Why USB devices stop working when I connect to another USB device on my computer?

    And how do I solve this problem?

    AK

    Just a thought by the way.  If the hubs are not powered you can cause the + 5V due to the excessive number of devices not powered up to a point where it causes accidents and able to resume.

    Reduce the number of UN powered can solve this problem,

    I recently reformatted the computer because I had a lot of problems, after doing so I tried to connect to the internet, on that I just plugged the ethernet cable, the light on the modem was flashing and I opened the network connections, but the network device was not there. e.g. connection to the LAN 1, etc.

    I also have another problem. I opened the Device Manager and could not see any of the connected devices.
    can anyone help?

    HI Kamal,

    If you have reinstalled just your system from the recovery CD then you will also need to re - install one of your devices (including your Internet connections) installation CD that came with them.

    The recovery CD contain only the Windows base operating system, as well as the software provided to Toshiba and to my knowledge, this does not include the ISP software or connections.

    Kind regards

  • Can not find the USB device on computer

    I have a cell phone Samsung A680 I try to take pictures off. I connected the USB cord to the computer and it found and installed the drivers that I needed, but when I opened my computer, it doesn't appear there or on the lower right corner of the taskbar. Does anyone know how to find so I can remove the photos?
    I have a Dell Inspiron with Windows Vista. In addition, it recognizes that it is there because it makes the sound when I plug in the USB and get him out.

    Thank you

    Hello weinkermeyer,

    Thank you for visiting the Microsoft answers community.

    I have studied your phone, and Samsung, phone (A680) has no available connectivity options.
    http://www.Samsung.com/us/consumer/mobile/mobile-phones/Sprint-phones/SPH-A680SSSXAR/index.idx?PAGETYPE=prd_detail&tab=spec

    What I would try, if you want to keep the pictures is picturemail just send to your e-mail address. Of course, depending on your phone plan, you will have to pay a fee in order to send the picturemail. If for some reason you cannot send picturemail to an email address, simply send to a friend or a family member who has a phone capable of connecting and downloading the pictures.

    Hope this helps Chris.H
