If I change the partition of a unit the system don't refresh the status until disconnect and reconnect it. For this reason I search how to connect and disconnect, but if I can force a refresh I don't need to disconnect the drive. Thanks for your time, and patience! -- Juan Segura www.sd-a.com juan(a)sd-a.com
