How do I disable/enable a USB drive?
I have a WD Elements drive on a Windows 10 desktop. It's 8 TB in a USB-connected enclosure.
I want to take it offline when I need to.
I could just unplug it ... but that's inconvenient.
I'd prefer to either (a) power it down with a software command, or (b) "unmount" it (to use Linux terminology).
And I'd like to be able to do the reverse, when needed.
But I don't know how to do any of that.
