I cant speak about OS/X, but I have crashed windows several times (BSOD)
while hot removing a USB SCSI CDROM. As you will notice, when you run
windows and attach a device, there is a program that is started that
allows you to notify the os of the removal so that it may properly
remove the device from the OS instead of it being yanked.
Thanks
