Gnome does that automatically *provided that* you right-click on the  
USB drive icon and select "Unmount" (or was it "Eject"?) from the menu.  
Abrupt removing/replugging USB drives will only corrupt your data. Of  
course, I may be reading your situation wrong; in that case, please  
disregard my post.

I read the post the same way;
I would add, outside of a GUI, if you have privileges you can run the unmount 
command in a shell or command line.

E.G.

#umount /media/usb-mount-point
