how can I tell the computer that the disk has ejected or isn't there but it really still is?

[theoriginalbit]

what?

Do you mean how do you hide the /disk/ folder so that other people cannot access it? I would use function replacement.

Replace fs.list and fs.open functions to not allow the /disk/ folder to be accessed.

You can tell when a disk is ejected by using the disk_eject event. However, the disk would no longer be in the drive if the event fired. So, I don't think I understand the second part of your question.

You can use the disk.isPresent(string side) function

for _,v in pairs(peripheral.getNames()) do
   if periheral.getType( v ) == "drive" then
      if disk.isPresent( v ) then
           print("Disk is in the drive!")
      end
   end
end

I hope this answers your question

He want to tell the computer that there isn't a card but there is a card.
I don't know how you can handle it but I have seen that somebody doesn't understand he ^^

I believe the OP wants to unmount the disk. (At least, that fits with my definition of 'unmount', removing access without removing the disk, essentially)
Having said that, I do not believe there is a way to do such, unless you do something with function replacement, as already mentioned.
