Hi, I'm not using my drives for anything more than copying files, dd etc. I just got curious because you mentioned the act of detaching a device after umounting it and I don't know how to do that on OpenBSD. On Fedora I would issue "udisks --detach /dev/sdX" (older versions) or "udisksctl poweroff -b /dev/sdX" (newer versions).
