Disk not ejected properly - uninterrupted messages

Yes:

• Clean the port
• Get the port replaced

It seems the drive is jiggling in the port or the port itself is loose.

Properly Ejecting a Drive:

If this was an icon on your desktop, then Drag-&-Drop the icon it over to the Trash, and then release the cursor. No Success? Shut Down your Mac, and then remove the drive.

Many "Disk not ejected properly" msgs appear during a day. Never get one when signed on and working. Seem to only appear when idled. Disk still shows as available on home screen. Can access info without ejecting and re-mounting.

Occurs on old wide style USB connected disk only. Newer disk with its-bity connectors not getting error message. Both attached at the same time.

Shutdown nightly and start-up in AM.

Any solution to this annoyance?
