Hello,

I am using Maxtor 500 GB external ( USB 2.0) hard drive and whenever I try
to unmount the
drive using "Safely remove drive" option, I get the following error and I am
concerned if
something has gone bad.

Please help.


Error detaching: helper exited with exit code 1: Detaching device /dev/sdc
USB device: /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:0b.1/usb1/1-6)
SYNCHRONIZE CACHE: OK
STOP UNIT: FAILED: No such file or directory
