Safely Remove Hardware?

[idata]

I recently got myself a G2 160GB and installed W7 Pro 64-bit. During the install, the SATA controller was set to IDE, and reading that TRIM was only auto-active using AHCI, I followed this guide: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/922976 http://support.microsoft.com/kb/922976 and went into the BIOS, changing it to AHCI. I also updated to the latest firmware after doing this. However, now the SSD shows up in Safely Remove Hardware and Eject Media, and is a constant icon in the system tray. Why is this, and how do I stop it?

It appears if you use 'ICH10R', you need the older one I used.

Does RST support auto-trim? As in does it TRIM when W7 tells it to?

No, not yet anyway.

I can live with the little icon if I have my auto-trim.

As long as you don't click on the eject button of the SSD with the running OS on it, there is no problem whatsoever
