--- Comment #17 from Mihai Sorin Dobrescu <msdobre...@gmail.com> ---
I have a supplemental issue related to this.
Some disks go to sleep after a while (WD Green type).
At this point, I can't revive them unless a power down them occurs. 
At this point, the disks are mounted from the OS point of view. Trying to eject
them or system shutdown/reboot will try to eject and power them down
indefinitely, as they are already powered down or sleeping (?). This is a mess.
Don't know if it is possible to raise some event when the hardware goes to
sleep, though.
Another problematic situation is when a disk goes to sleep and the system seems
to "think" the disk is available. You have apparently a woken up disk, Dolphin
can browse on it as long as it has a cache of the file system until you try to
operate on it, like copying or moving files. Then KDE becomes pretty much
stalled. No new mounts can be done, complaining to have not available D-Bus
resources anymore for that. Dolphin starts having trouble. But not Gnome's file
manager, not the GTK based apps (like EasyTag). VLC works too. But even the
KDE/Plasma Desktop might become unresponsive. I don't know how much of thesee
can be fixed, but it should improve KDE as much as possible.
