I am having a problem with OS X randomly ejecting drives. I connect to Windows 2k3 shares through Finder, and it has been ejecting them every so often, and i have to reconnect. Today, I had my iPod plugged in (4g Color Screen, 20 GB, Windows formatter) and I was playing music from it through iTunes, and the system disconnected it (I got the error about possibly having problems if you disconnect your drive before ejecting it). Any suggestions on what could be wrong?

Could be something wrong with the Windows partition, perhaps something go corrupted. Also I would make sure that all system permissions are correct and that there are no disk errors. A last ditch effort would be completely reformat the drives and see if they keep in randomly unmount.

I don't think it is the Windows partitions. This is at work and the other Mac users don't have this problem with the server drives, and my iPod works fine on all my other machines.

Oh, I didn't indicate this in my original post. This is on a Macbook Pro (2.2 Ghz C2D, 2 GB RAM) running the latest version of OS X.
