I have recently moved to OSX and I have a problem with my USB hard drive. When ever I put the computer to sleep with the hard drive connected, when it wakes up again I am greeted with an error that the hard drive wasn't disconnected properly etc. Is there a way, a script or something, to properly eject the hard drive when I put the computer to sleep, then have it connect again when the computer wakes?
hard drive error when put to sleep

that is not the case with me, my hard drive is exteranlly powered and yet still has an error message when I reboot. But as I type this I have realised that both my devices are plugged into a power saving unit, which cuts power to the hard drive when the mac is off.
I would still like a script to mount/unmount the drive, as I dont like having my hard drive on if its not in use, hence the power saver thing.
