Correct, you can mount it with the "sync" option and every filesystem

The light stays on using my USB drive under Ubuntu, but goes off under
windows so it's not just you with this behaviour. Even with the light
staying on I think it would be good for a popup message saying the
device is safe to remove as you get in windows. It should be fairly
simple to implement

2,000 stickers. He needs an address, though, that people can send
their SAE to.
I don't have a business address I can use for this, so does anyone
have any ideas? The address would need to be available for a
reasonable period and wo
