The only thing I can say, my JAZ drive here behaves like that. When some- body not liking me presses that eject button unnoticed during that long day and I have to unmount the JAZ partitions later at home to test some- thing it ejects the disk (and I am getting my typical "aaarggg"-face) (better not to talk to me at these moments.... :-) ) (home is enough far away not to like to go to the bureau where the JAZ resides...)
