[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1702515, member: 204485"] So one would assume that there are files on your WD My Book that are synced to DropBox? That is not the case in my example but a good point for others with the same issue. In my case I found that adding it to the exclusion list in Spotlight Preferences stopped Spotlight from indexing it and allowed it to be ejected in the usual manner. And as an aside If you have DropBox there should be a Menu Bar icon clicking that and the "gear wheel" in the drop down allows you to quit without needing to resort to Activity Monitor. [/QUOTE]
