I think you need to forget that your drives have an "eject" button.  If you
want to eject a disk, use the buttons provided in the dialog boxes, or the
Eject command in the File (?) menu of the Finder.  This way the OS knows what
you're doing.  It's why the drives that are built-in to the Macintosh don't
have an eject button.  (Of course you can hit Command-E in the Finder and still
try to fool the Mac, but it will simply ask you to put the disk back in a
drive.)  The eject button is provided primarily so that you can use the drives
with one of the classic IIs, as they don't have the Finder or anything like it.
Automatic ejection is still possible on these machines, but it depends on
whether or not a program uses it (Copy II Plus, for example, does).
