Sorry, I think I didn't explain my thought clearly. I think the only time there is missing data is if the drive is unmounted and unplugged without either doing the head parking OR doing the unmount-remount- unmount. It appears that *either* of these works. What doesn't seem to work is just unmounting and unplugging, at least for me.
I'm wondering if this is the right place for this bug. It seems like this bug is not assigned to anybody, nor has any developer responded to it. My son uses a different Linux distro (Arch) and he has verified the problem there as well, so it appears to be an upstream problem, possibly in the kernel or the mount/unmount utilities. -- not proper dismounting for WD passport harddrive (making noise when unplug) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/117713 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
