Sample Code:

    // Assuming have IntPtr devinst already
    //
    // static readonly int CR_SUCCESS = 0x00000000; // cfgmgr32.h
    // static readonly int DN_REMOVABLE = 0x00004000; // cfg.h

    if (CR_SUCCESS == CM_Get_DevNode_Status(ref status, ref problem, devinst, 0) && (DN_REMOVABLE & status) > 0)
    {
        PNP_VETO_TYPE pnp_veto_type;
        System.Text.StringBuilder sb = new System.Text.StringBuilder(255);

        bool success = (CR_SUCCESS == CM_Request_Device_Eject(devinst, out pnp_veto_type, sb, sb.Capacity, 0));
