that's really strange 'cause i have exactly the same hardrive ( western digital passport II 160G ) and i don't have this kind of problem, i copied a lot of avis on it and no one of them has disapearred after unmounting it . anyway in a "normal" shutdown for this disk it have to park head and stop cylinders and actually this is not the case , i think this issue could be dangerous for the harddrive itself , i hope devs will have a look at this bug.
