Solution?
Problem: In Windows 7 "Safely remove hardware" works very slow.
I found out reading the forums that this might be because every time you click on the icon to remove an USB device, it loads the data about the devices in "Devices and Printers" which process is very slow. So if you have "Devices and Printers" open BEFORE you click on safely remove icon, the menu (what to remove) appears instantly. Sadly this is not a real solution to have this open all the time. I didn't find any fix to this, but there is a very good alternative if you want safely remove your devices in almost the same way - it's a programm called "HotSwap!" - definetly worth a try!

I installed my new desktop PC (Gigabyte GA-MA78GM-S2H motherboard, AMD Athlon X2 4850e processor, Kingmax 2GB DDR2 800 MHz) and since the motherboard has an eSATA connector I was able to use my WD My Book Home external drive via it's eSATA connection. I was playing a bit and did some benchmarking and tested actual file copying speed with some of my HDD's. I tested my:
First I run two hard disk drive benchmarking tools: the aged ATTO Disk Benchmark and HD Tune. Then I copied a 640MB file with Windows Explorer (native) and with TeraCopy free version (2.0 beta 4) and measured the time it took to copy. Then I did the same with 4 files altogether measuring 5,57GB. I gave copy speed in MB/s, actual time is in brackets. Here are the results:

It is very hard to draw any conclusion because there are so many factors affecting data transfer rate and because of the inaccuracy in measurement.
It seems that:

I'm trying to configure/customize foobar2000. I did it 2 years ago, but in the end I decided to use XMPlay instead, I think because it was faster. Back then my foobar2000 looked something like this:
