How can I tell FreeBSD to stop using a SATA drive? I'd like to pull it from my machine (while the machine is running) but I'd like to be confident that nothing is using it. I imagine I would feel confident that nothing is using it if the drive disappeared from /dev and it stopped spinning. "camcontrol stop" did not accomplish this (that was a WAG -- camcontrol man page says that 'stop' only sends the 0x1B command whatever that means). Please let me know if you can imagine a better place for me to ask this question or learn more about the process. Chris
