Show HN: Ejectify – Automatically unmounts disks when your Mac starts sleeping

Hi all,

I have connected a Time Machine disk to an external display. As soon as my Mac sleeps, the display is powered off and the disk gets ejected forcefully. This results in annoying "Disk not ejected properly" notifications when my Mac wakes up again and eventually might corrupt the volume.

This menu bar app automatically unmounts my Time Machine disk, and other external volumes, when my Mac starts sleeping, and mount them again after it wakes up. Problem solved.

It is similar to Jettison but Ejectify additionally allows you to configure when volumes should be unmounted automatically. In my case, it works best when they get unmounted when (external) screens started sleeping instead of my Mac.

Ejectify can be downloaded after making a small contribution or can be build from source for free.

Hope you find it useful too .
