Bug Description
When you eject an external HD, files should turn it off so that the user can safely remove it from the pc. But that’s not what is happening, I have been facing the issue that I need to unplug my HD while it is still turned on, and that may cause some damage to the device or in the files stored in it.
Whenever i need to turn off an external device, i use the “gnome-disks” software to turn it off.
If possible I would like for you to address this issue somehow, thanks you for your attention.
Just to serve as a reference, these two are the HDs i usually use:
