Default [SOLVED] Safely Remove Drive option in Win 7 64bit allowing to remove HDD

Hey guys, just figured out that, under Safely Remove Drive, HDD is an option there.



Isn't it odd??

Yet I didn't try to remove that. I'll do that and see what happens before shutting down today.

go to BIOS & turn the HDD option to Native IDE. HDD won't be shown under safely remove option.

that's due to Raid/achi(HDD hot swap feature) i think disabling it to native ide will cost performance

Thanks. Got it.

So what do you guys suggest?? Should I change it to native IDE??

If it compromise on performance I'd prefer to leave it this way only.

BTW I tried removing the drive, and it says the drive is being used. So I don't see any problem here(I mean if I click on that while clicking on pen drive by mistake)
