Description Norbert 2013-03-18 20:28:16 CET

Removing powered device from USB port is unsafe operation. It is not sufficient
to unmount/eject drive, it must be completely powered off before removal.

Please bring back "Safely remove" to Nautilus.

I tried 4 Transcend flashes, 1 ADATA, 2 no-name (SMI and ChipsBnk). They remain
powered after eject - it's DANGEROUS for my (and anybody's) data.
I tried external USB-SATA Tsunami HDD - Disks does not spin down (stop) it -
It's DANGEROUS for my (and anybody's) data.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Insert USB-flash or USB-hdd
2. Do something with this drive (copy files, move files, open files)
3. Try to Eject USB disk
Actual Results:  
USB-flash is not powered off after eject (as it did in Nautilus 3.4.2 and
2.32).
USB-HDD id not stop after unmount. Eject icon option is not present.

Expected Results:  
USB-flash powered off (its LED is off).
USB-HDD is spinned down (plates are stopped).

This bug come from Nautilus (upstream bug https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=693946). These distros are affected: Ubuntu (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/udisks2/+bug/1067876,
https://bugs.launchpad.net/nautilus/+bug/1127135), Fedora (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=919194), OpenSuse (https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=808447), Sabayon (http://bugs.sabayon.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4072).


I can detach USB-flash or HDD from console with "udisks --detach /dev/sdX", but
it is not simple way for linux-newbies.

Reproducible:

Upstream non-duplicate bug: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=676321

Setting priority to low because we're probably not going to work on it until upstream handles it.

Priority: Normal => Low
Hardware: i586 => All
