Title:
  Gnome Disk Utility Issues incorrect command when ejecting a SATA
  Harddisk or Solid State Drive

Status in udisks:
  New
Status in gnome-disk-utility package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Use case: As a user of hot swap-able SATA disks using a Harddrive
  Riser over eSATA. I need a safe, easy and convenient way to remove the
  hot swap-able SATA disk without rebooting and without having to go to
  the command line.

  When attempting to eject an harddisk or a solid state disk using the eject button in "Gnome Disk Utility" it issues the 'eject' command which results in an IOCTL error.
  The correct commands the eject button in the GUI should issue to eject a SATA HDD or SSD are:

  # where X is the drive letter of the drive being worked with

  # -Y   Put drive to sleep
  sudo hdparm -Y /dev/sdX
  # remove the device from the kernel
  sudo sh -c 'echo 1 > /sys/block/sdX/device/delete'

  Please see the screen shots for the error.
  This should be an easy fix (20 minutes) for someone who is good a programmer.
