Did not work for any of my afp, smb or firewire mounted drives. Should it? Or this only fro cds?

Well, it's not going to work for your afp or smb drives, as they are network disks (i.e. not "local"), and I don't know of any FireWire disks that are less than one gigabyte, so it wouldn't eject those, either. Moreover, the script is intended to not eject those kinds of disks.
