>>> For USB flashes I have "/sys/block/sdc/removable = 0" and It seems I made a mistake when copying text. I have = 1 for them. I'm sorry.
I made a big work (4 usb flashes, 1 USB HDD + 3 laptops, 1 PC). I tested Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, Ubuntu 13.04, Fedora 18, OpenSuse 12.3. The results are not good: a have only one flash, which can be detached completely (with poweroff) with the newest Ubuntu 13.04. The report is located in Google Docs, you can download and explore it (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Ao5e713Ig9g_dHJBalI2b09TQ2ZNOHJOQnhFbEVXaXc&usp=sharing). On first sheet I wrote a summary for my devices (name, fdisk -l, lsusb, udisksctl dump, cat /sys/block/sdc/removable, comment). On the second sheet I collected test results - on different machines, distros, with safely remove test by Nautilus, udisks and Unity. I think we need more test results. It's unbelievable, that almost all modern Linux distributions can't safely remove USB-flashes and spin down USB-HDDs. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1067876 Title: Missing "Safely Remove Drive" option from Quicklists.
