However I don't think this is the case since I easily transferred these types of files on the older 500GB WD My Passport Mac USB hard drive (Model No: WD5000MEA) that I also own. Seeing that my newer 1TB WD how to eject external hard drive from mac air My Passport Essential SE (Model No: WX71A31E5201) is built to perform better, faster and more reliably than my older model, I don't think this is the case.I've tried resetting the PRAM on my Mac computer, and I used Mac's Disk Utility application to repair the disk (note: Disk Utility said that my drive was fine). What should I do to stop my external hard drive from randomly ejecting itself?
