Aren't we glad that disk storage is down to less than one one-hundredth of a penny per megabyte now? The first computer I ever used cost $1,600 dollars per megabyte. That's something like nine orders of magnitude change (did I figure that right?)

Below is a screen shot taken without rebooting! Hooray!!

The instructions that came with my NexStar external SATA dock said to always use the "Safely Remove Hardware" utility before removing or powering off the external drive. I always wondered if that was really necessary? It seems to be a moot point now, because with the new driver installed that utility is no longer available in my system tray. Should that concern me?
