Eject all locally mounted disks via AppleScript
Authored by: kscotto on Fri, May 30 2008 at 10:41AM PDT

This is what I've been looking for. I changed the value of the disk so that it would eject my USB backup drive (since every time I take my laptop I had to access finder and press Opt and click on the unmount arrow to eject). I assigned the script a hot key via Butler, and now I can eject the disk quickly before I leave with a hotkey combo. Thanks for the tip!
