Hello - question on removing external drives. I have two 250GB external hard drives attached to my laptop. One attaches directly via USB, the other attached via a port on a 4 port USB hub. When I try to "Safely Remove" the 2nd external drive (the one attached via a 4 port USB hub), I get a message that the drive cannot be detached because it is in use. It is not in use as far as I know (there is no open Explorer window looking at it, or anything like that). Any suggestions for either how to make this error go away, or how to tell which application (if any) is using the drive?
