Re: Iomega Ego USB3.0 2TB drive - error on "remove safely"

Alan,

Thank you for the answer about the error.  This particular drive has a
separate power supply, so there is a possibility that the drive writes
the cache out either as it senses its removal from the USB bus or as I
turn off the power on the power switch (it may be a "soft switch").

And if the drive received its power from the USB bus I would be a bit
more concerned.

In any case, if it is the cache of the actual disk drive that is
generating the error, I feel better about it than some cache in Linux
not being flushed properly.

I will go back and capture just this error again, then I will try to
enter this as a support issue with the Iomega people, but quite frankly
I think that I would probably not get as far with them as I have with
you. ;-)

Thanks again.
