Safely remove hardware?

I recently ran driver agent and installed all the out of date drivers for my
computer, however on booting, I now have the option to safely remove both my
hard drive and my DVD Writer drive. How can I remove this option?

Re: Safely remove hardware?

Roll back to the last version of the driver for your Serial ATA controllers.

Already did, unless it's flakey hardware I would not have a clue.
