Okay, so guys (and girls:p) I bought a WD My Passport Essentials SE external HDD, and I was wondering what is the proper way to eject it? I just right click on it in My Computer, click Eject, and then remove the USB cable? Asking because even after click Eject, and the drive removes itself from My Computer, it is actually still spinning. Is this a normal thing for external drives? I have the same experience. Usually I just leave the drive plugged in for an extra 30mins, so it's not being used, and then just remove the cable - you should notice that the drive has stopped spinning so you won't hear that spin-down. Note: after the 30mins, if you open My Computer, or empty the recycle bin etc, you'll hear it spin up again.
