With this software I can do a Safely remove of a USB-flash or external USB- HDD from nautilus (3.4.2-0ubuntu8) and from gnome-disk-utility (3.0.2-2ubuntu7). In modern linux distros (such as Ubuntu 13.04, 13.10, Mageia 4, Fedora 19, OpenSuse 12.3) there is no Safely remove option in Nautilus (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/udisks2/+bug/1067876 and https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60293). In gnome-disks Safely remove / Poweroff is appeared again (from 3.8, see https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=675542), but it does not spin-down external USB-HDD. In some linux distros I can spin-down my disk with "udisks --detach /dev/sdX", but it is not user-friendly. So please, enable spin-down on the udisks side. I understand that external SATA (and IDE) HDDs are hot-pluggable and hot-swappable, but it is not comfortable for me to detach rotating drive.
