Sometimes my external drive will be noticed, other times it wont. When I umount it, what is the proper way to mount it again? Dont tell me I have to reach around and physically unplug it, or turn the drive off. I hope OSX is a little slicker than that.

Why cant it show up in disk utility as 'unmounted', then all I have to do is mount it?
