Slow Disk Eject Problem...

Greetings!

on EjectDisk(DiskName)
	try
		tell application "Finder"
			eject DiskName
		end tell
	end try
end EjectDisk

This script almost immediately ejects CD/DVD when invoked from Script Editor. However when I try to launch it from Folder Actions or from Preferences CDs & DVDs pane it takes 10-20 seconds to eject a disk.

What could be the reason for it?
Is there any workaround?

This is the script I use. Gve it a try…

tell application "Finder"
	if (exists disk "DiskName") then
		eject disk "DiskName"
	end if
end tell

Thanks, Tom!
Sometimes your code works immediately, sometimes same as mine…

What can cause such behaviour?
