On my work computer I have two USB hard drives that I use rarely. They have a power save mode that sends them into sleep after a couple of minutes of them being idle.
Whenever I open a context menu on a file, the drives are woken up (most likely caused by the "send to" handler). So I eject the drive, but I can't find a way to get it back, other than unplugging and replugging it in.
Is there a way to unmount the drives, and then remount them only when I actually need them? (On Windows 7 Ultimate.)
If it's any help, I summarized all option within my answer for this question
