Sata drives are supposed to be hot pluggable - hence the "Safely remove". I don't know why it's there sometimes and sometimes not. Mine's an Epox board - don't need to install drivers for straight sata - only for raid. My Windows is on an sata drive, and I don't have that icon (2nd drive is reg ide), so who knows......
