Comment 9 for bug 63090

@Sander50: What workaround??

@pitti: In general I think it *doesn't* work fine to eject all usb devices - especially external USB hard drives - flash drives seem to work okay - except they can't be remounted afterwards and need to be physically removed and reinserted first - but I have an external hard drive which at the moment can't even be ejected - and the same is occurring for anumber of other users - see bug #99498 - which is a pretty bad regression as they can only me unmounted / ejected from the command-line....

So I agree - in general we should only eject those devices which NEED ejection - ipods and the like - but those which can be happily unmounted - usb flash and hard drives to name a few - should NOT require eject...
