I think he was asking for

a program that, after you have run Safely Remove Hardware on the drive, will remount the drive as if you had pulled it out and plugged it back in again. When I asked this question the reply I got was that there was no programatic way to do this. I'd be happy to be proved wrong.

Situations:

Testing autostart function,
saving Battery power on a laptop,
ejecting by mistake,
Save HDD-life by turning it off and on,
...

All without plugging it off and on (crawling behind the desk, wearing out the USB connectors mechanically, ...)
