EjectBar: Free Open Source Mac Menu Bar App for Safe Drive Ejection

EjectBar is a free, open source Mac menu bar app that allows you to quickly eject external drives and mounted network shares. It provides a simple clickable icon to safely disconnect drives without having to open Finder.

What is EjectBar?

EjectBar is a free, open source menu bar application for macOS that enables easy and fast ejection of external drives and mounted network shares. It adds an icon to the menu bar that, when clicked, shows a list of all currently connected external volumes and network drives.

Simply click on the drive you wish to eject and it will safely disconnect it by unmounting and spinning down the drive, if applicable. This prevents damage from improperly ejecting external drives.

Key features of EjectBar:

  • Simple single click ejection of drives from the menu bar
  • Ejects USB drives, SD cards, external hard drives, CD/DVD drives
  • Ejects mounted network drives and shares
  • Safe ejection by properly unmounting volumes
  • Free and open source software
  • Lightweight app with very little memory/CPU footprint

By putting eject controls in the menu bar, EjectBar saves you from having to open Finder windows and dig through the sidebar to eject drives properly. Its sole purpose is to make it faster and easier to disconnect external volumes after use.

With its small download size, open source codebase, and helpful functionality, EjectBar is a useful utility for any Mac user that connects external and network volumes often.
