Hi,
I frequently copy files (Size about 2GB, sometimes 50 files of this size in
one copying process) from my internal laptop disk (Win8.1) to an external
media, usb flash drive or external disk. The copying progress is schown in the
right upper corner of the display. When the display shows "copying is
finished", the copying process is not really finished, it takes some
additional minutes, before I can eject the external media. This appears in
F24/F25/F26. This is confusing.
Kind regards
You need to create BUG for every tool you are using.
TOOL simply has to wait before 'fdatasync()' operation is finished -
otherwise such device just 'fill' your page-cache.
There is nothing else you can do here.
A normal protection from a user against buggy programs like this is - you
call 'sync' &| 'umount' from cmdline before you unplug external media - you
never try to just 'cut-off' cable when some tool reports 'it's finished'.
Regards
Zdenek
