We currently have a memory leak where any drives that get processed with dat-fetch are loaded indefinitely.

To solve this we should call drive.close after the request is finished.

This will mean that applications will need to implement their own methods for seeding drives.

Maybe this should come with a PIN and UNPIN method for keeping a drive online and seeded?
