Mid December last Year(2014) I bought a copy of
Windows XP Professional 64bit SP2 off of eBay
upgrading my PC from 32bit to 64bit.

_____________________________________________________________________________________
When using the USB 3.0 Speeder Utility to change both my
- 1TB WD My Passport Ultra and
- 32GB Sandisk Ultra Fit…
from normal mode to the turbo mode so I can make use of USB3.0’s full
capabilities
my ultra fit(I only just got that in the mail Monday 02/09/2015) changes
ok and the WD MyPassport Ultra was ok some time before… changing to
Turbo mode…
HOWEVER! the “safely remove hardware” system tray icon is missing now
when its in turbo mode and no matter how many time I remove/insert it it
does not show up again…
if I switch it back to normal USB3.0 mode the Sandisk Ultra Fit, the
appears “safely remove hardware” system tray icon again and I can safely
click to safely eject it…
when I try to change my WD Passport Ultra to turbo or normal or its
been set to turbo for some time since I got the passport ultra back
July or August last year… since I bought this USB3.0 cards from Anker
via Amazon…
PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA
the SES driver for my WD passport ultra (wdcsam64.sys), BUT… the crash
also occurs when trying to change modes too…
___________________________________________________________________________
these are the files that was downloaded/installed from the Passport Ultra driver page
(ie up to date, 
):
wdf01000.sys
Kernel Mode Driver Framework Runtime
Portable Executable 64
Microsoft Visual C++ 8.0 (DLL)
v1.9.7600.16385 (win7_rtm.090713-1255)
digital signature OK
Tuesday, July 14, 2009 12:35:15 PM
wdcsam64.sys
WD SCSI Architecture Model (SAM) driver
v1.0.7.2 (INF file claims it is v1.0.0009)
so every time I try to just remove my WD passport Ultra by just unplugging it
Windows XP Pro 64bit SP2 BSODS every single time so the only way for me to
unplug it is to shutdown the PC and remove it then… =(
I had the Amazon USB3 cable come around the PC from 1 port and I would plug
the Sandisk Ultra Fit in another open port on the Anker USB3.0 PCIe cards…
There is a bug here some where, whether a
- VIA driver bug,
- Western Digital SES driver bug
- or even in windows it self
but since M$ isn’t doing anything for XP anymore I can only hope that
VIA/Anker and or WD can get a fix out ASAP… because BSODs are too much trouble
to continue using this card… =(
_____________________________________________________________________________________
my Passport Ultra will ALSO BSOD if I try to just unplug it form said USB 3.0 PCIe card
if its not ejected… but since the “safely remove hardware” system tray icon is missing I cannot do it
ok, I disabled the Western Digital’s SES driver which is used by my
WD Passport Ultra 1TB External HDD (USB 3.0)
the crashing stopped Whoo lol O_o.
btw even though its not crashing, with the WD SES driver disabled
the “Safely remove hardware” system tray item is still not present
if any of the connected USB 3.0 device are in TURBO mode
I have a,
Anker® Uspeed USB 3.0 PCI-E Express Card
with 4 USB 3.0 Ports and 5V 4-Pin Power Connector for Desktops
[VL805 Chipset] ← VIA

ps: I have also contacted Anker by email on this issue as well. =D
PS2: “PLEASE CHOOSE CASE REASON:”
IT NEEDS A BUG REPORT OPTION !!!
ps:
I copy and pasted my above bug report from a text file I had saved a copy to ;D
WD SUPPORT **bleep**… they closed my bug report after not even two days! and did nothing not even respinded to me!!
I am hoping I can at least open a real discussion here…
