i actually didn't notice this problem and i always unmount my hardrive using this script: ( of course change /dev/sdb1 by your harddrive ) #!/bin/sh pumount /dev/sdb1 #wait for mtab to be updated sleep 3 #we search an occurency of our harddrive in mtab UMOUNT=`grep '/dev/sdb1' /etc/mtab | wc -c` if [ $UMOUNT -eq 0 ] then #we sync the harddrive sdparm --command=sync /dev/sdb1 #we can spindown the hardrive sdparm --command=stop /dev/sdb1 zenity --info --title="Info" --text="You can unplug your Hardrive !" else zenity --error --title="Info" --text="It seems your harddrive isn't unmounted , unmount it then try again" fi you can modify it by adding this at the start : #unmount pumount /dev/sdb1 #mount pmount /dev/sdb1 #unmount pumount /dev/sdb1 it use pmount , sdparm and zenity ( sudo aptitude install pmount zenity sdparm ) then simply make it executable and launch it -- not proper dismounting for WD passport harddrive (making noise when unplug) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/117713 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

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. -- not proper dismounting for WD passport harddrive (making noise when unplug) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/117713 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
