[Bug 660010] Re: No 'safely remove' option is present in the unity menu when a usb disk is inserted
I was about to report a bug on this but will add my two penny's worth here. I really, really like Unity. I think it's a great development, but this issue makes using it difficult. One of the things I would really miss from Gnome is the way that removable media like USB sticks and the like are displayed as an icon on the desktop - and can be ejected safely by right-clicking that icon. It's so easy and intuitive that I think it would be a shame to ditch it.

[Bug 660010] Re: No 'safely remove' option is present in the unity menu when a usb disk is inserted
It's not really about system internal. The difference is that ejection is for media, while removal is for drives. I. e. you usually eject a CD from a drive, and you usually remove an USB stick. It becomes more interesting with devices which are both hotpluggable and removable, such as USB card readers or USB CD-ROMs. On a technical level the difference manifests like this: Suppose you have a drive (/dev/sdb) with a medium with one partition in it (/dev/sdb1). After eject, /dev/sdb1 will go away, and you can use /dev/sdb to query the drive status. Also, the drive remains powered. After safe removal, both medium and drive will go away (no /dev/sdb* any more), and the drive will also be powered off properly (which also helps saving energy). In general, using Eject on USB sticks and other hotpluggable drives will usually work fine, and never cause a problem with data integrity. The main reason why we still have it separately is for things like iPods, which really want to be removed (not just media ejected), otherwise they make a big fuss about Wah! Wah! Don't unplug me yet!. Conversely, we can't just have save removal only, since that would stop the drive from being able to be ever used again until the next boot. -- No 'safely remove' option is present in the unity menu when a usb disk is inserted https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/660010 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Martin, jut my 2c: I had different experience with iPods. They stopped flashing the message about being not safe to remove after executing eject (either from CLI or from Nautilus).

Re: [Bug 660010] Re: No 'safely remove' option is present in the unity menu when a usb disk is inserted
there is an option 'eject' that does the same.

Re: [Bug 660010] Re: No 'safely remove' option is present in the unity menu when a usb disk is inserted
I think there is a subtle difference between Eject and Safely Remove, that's material for disks with multiple partitions. Personally, I think we should consolidate all of it to one menu entry, but the GNOME Nautilus view does have both. I'll ask MPT to comment directly.

Re: [Bug 660010] Re: No 'safely remove' option is present in the unity menu when a usb disk is inserted
Interesting. Would it not be true that an internal-only device would be visible at boot, while a device that becomes visible during the session must by definition be removable and re-pluggable? Could we use that?
