uh, sorry 
s/500 harddrive/500 GB harddrive 

I mean, amarok scans the disk and you can't stop it if it is big mass storage.

You should not try to scan an external harddisk as a media device for obvious reasons. Instead, select it as a collection source in the settings.

But yes, one should be able to stop the scanner I think.
