• •Developer 'coyotebush' released Noject, a native macOS menu bar utility designed to protect external volumes from manual or accidental ejection.
• •The tool functions by intercepting ejection requests for user-selected drives, essentially locking them as 'always-on' storage.
• •The application is currently limited to macOS; the developer has not clarified if future support for network-attached storage or other platforms is planned.

Developer 'coyotebush' introduced Noject this week, a lightweight macOS menu bar utility designed to prevent the accidental ejection of external drives. The tool was built to solve a specific pain point for users with high-speed NVMe drives that are intended to function as persistent internal storage. While initial feedback on Hacker News highlights its utility for Mac mini setups, the app currently lacks advanced enterprise-level volume management features. Whether it gains traction among broader power users may depend on how the developer balances future functionality with the app’s current minimalist design.
