# OLD Version, stopped working in El Capitan:
# tell application "Finder" to eject (every disk whose ejectable is true and local volume is true and free space is not equal to 0)
# This works with El Cap, Sierra, High Sierra, etc:
tell application "Finder" to eject (every disk whose ejectable is true and local volume is true)
