--- Comment #35 from Alivema4ever <alivema4e...@gmail.com> ---
I think the udisks subsystem of KDE should distinguish between unmounting the
partitions of a drive and safely removing the drive.

Unmounting the mounted filesystem should be clearly assigned as unmount action.
This is the dependency of safely remove.

Safely removing the drive should ensure that all partitions are unmounted prior
to powering off the drive.

The proper graphical application to power off external disk is gnome-disk[1].
This application can be used as reference on how to implement power-off feature
for safely removing external hard disks. Unfortunately, there is no equivalent
app on KDE.

@Soukyuu: I mistyped the command.
The proper udisksctl command to power off the drive is
``udisksctl power-off -b /dev/sdb``
``udisksctl power-off --block-device /dev/sdb``
