Safe removal of USB storage - suggestion for a future LL release
#3
Quote:umount sdx

... in my case 'umount sdd1' - firenice03, unfortunately this doesn't turn off it's activity - the external drive's blue light is still on and it says it's not mounted.

I really would like a 'safely remove storage device' option in the file manager as in Zorin OS 9 - at the risk of sounding 'ageist' it would make removing USB devices 'granny-proof'...

64bit OS (32-bit on Samsung[i] netbook) installed in [i]Legacy mode on MBR-formatted SSDs (except pi which uses a micro SDHC card):
2017 - Raspberry pi 3B (4cores) ~ [email protected] - LibreElec, used for upgrading our Samsung TV (excellent for the task)  
2012 - Lenovo G580 2689 (2cores; 4threads] ~ [email protected] - LL3.8/Win8.1 dual-boot (LL working smoothly)
2011 - Samsung NP-N145 Plus (1core; 2threads) ~ Intel Atom [email protected] - LL 3.8 32-bit (64-bit too 'laggy')
2008 - Asus X71Q (2cores) ~ Intel [email protected] - LL4.6/Win8.1 dual-boot, LL works fine with kernel 4.15
2007 - Dell Latitude D630 (2cores) ~ Intel [email protected] - LL4.6, works well with kernel 4.4; 4.15 doesn't work
