Eject USB under program control

[cranioscopical]

I wanted to eject/stop my external USB HDD(s). Being lazy I found this on the web. It's versatile, and it works, and it's free.

USB Disk Ejector from http://quickandeasysoftware.net/software

Among other things it can:

•     Eject the drive that the program is running from.
•     Eject a drive by specifying a drive letter.
•     Eject a drive by specifying a drive name.
•     Eject a drive by specifying a mountpoint
•     Eject a drive by specifying a partial drive name.

In case anyone else needs a fast solution.
