Not sure, it doesn't happen for me and I haven't got any reports from
either Fedora or Ubuntu users about this so I'm not convinced hal is
causing this to happen. FWIW, we don't even poll these drives anymore as
hal as of 0.2.98 or something respects the /sys/block/hda/removable
file. If you find out what is causing this please let us know.

Good luck,
David
