[QUOTE="dtravis7, post: 1080172, member: 8287"] Interesting. I have 2 iPods, my old USB Zip drive and 2-4 external hard drives always connected to my iMac and set to sleep in 30 minutes. I have never gotten any warning message from OSX nor had any data corruption due to sleep. If you yank the drive without ejecting, then the warning message shows up. It would be very annoying to have to unmount every external drive every time I walked away from the computer! PS, Been using this iMac this way for almost 5 years now. [/QUOTE]
