Public bug reported: This seems to happen only to additional hdd (not the one with the root partition). gnome-disks and some file manager report those drives as ejectable.
This might be fixed by the following patch http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/stable/stable- queue.git/diff/queue-4.4/ata-ahci-don-t-mark-hotplugcapable-ports-as- external-removable.patch?id=4e362751dc079531ef2b95bcd5c71e12f78e1ae6 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 Package: linux-image-4.4.0-18-generic 4.4.0-18.34 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.4.0-18.34-generic 4.4.6 Uname: Linux 4.4.0-18-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.1-0ubuntu1 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: kiran 1110 F.... pulseaudio CurrentDesktop: XFCE Date: Sat Apr 9 20:03:18 2016 HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=ebcf26a9-f63a-4b55-ad87-31f7b1f3feb6 InstallationDate: Installed on 2016-03-31 (9 days ago) InstallationMedia: Xubuntu 16.04 LTS "Xenial Xerus" - Beta amd64 (20160323) MachineType: LENOVO 2767WSD PccardctlIdent: Socket 0: no product info available PccardctlStatus: Socket 0: no card ProcFB: 0 inteldrmfb ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-4.4.0-18-generic root=UUID=a0309315-a77b-4d81-8a2c-b603b5ab7acd ro quiet splash RelatedPackageVersions: linux-restricted-modules-4.4.0-18-generic N/A linux-backports-modules-4.4.0-18-generic N/A linux-firmware 1.157 RfKill: 0: phy0: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: no SourcePackage: linux UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) dmi.bios.date: 10/17/2012 dmi.bios.vendor: LENOVO dmi.bios.version: 7UET94WW (3.24 ) dmi.board.name: 2767WSD dmi.board.vendor: LENOVO dmi.board.version: Not Available dmi.chassis.asset.tag: No Asset Information dmi.chassis.type: 10 dmi.chassis.vendor: LENOVO dmi.chassis.version: Not Available dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnLENOVO:bvr7UET94WW(3.24):bd10/17/2012:svnLENOVO:pn2767WSD:pvrThinkPadT400:rvnLENOVO:rn2767WSD:rvrNotAvailable:cvnLENOVO:ct10:cvrNotAvailable: dmi.product.name: 2767WSD dmi.product.version: ThinkPad T400 dmi.sys.vendor: LENOVO ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug xenial -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1568352 Title: "/sys/block/sd(X)/removable" erroneously indicates "removable" for fixed drives Status in linux package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: This seems to happen only to additional hdd (not the one with the root partition). gnome-disks and some file manager report those drives as ejectable.
