You're right. Maybe the "safe to unplug" means sending a SYNCHRONIZE command. I'm not sure whether the "eject" program does that, but maybe it does. The problem before was that you were doing "eject /dev/sda1" when you should have done "eject /dev/sda". That is, eject the whole disk, not just the first partition. It's worth another try.
