How can i remove the "Eject" icon from the menubar?

It's an icon that starts on login. It ejects all mounted disks (dmg/usb/etc...).

I'm inclined to leave this here. The wording is different and one is general and the other specific. Having two or three good questions that are distinct enough in wording will help a greater number of people searching for questions to find an answer here. Unless there are other exact matches, these two questions are fine for the site. – bmike♦ Feb 15 '12 at 15:46
I definitely wouldn't have found the other question. – drewish Nov 3 '12 at 0:10

You can also move them. Notice that this does not have to work with every application. e.g. Dropbox does not honor the key, while iStat Menu does it. On the other hand you remove Spotlight search using this trick. – Max Ried Feb 14 '12 at 11:41
oh, no no, i love spotlight search! :) – elpsk Feb 14 '12 at 11:43

@bot47 In the future, if you already know it's a duplicate, please flag it for moderator attention to have it closed, and don't answer it. There's no point in duplicating information all over the place. – slhck Feb 14 '12 at 11:53
