in the first place.

I just reformatted it from a Windows machine (so no, this won't help
much)...

Title:
  keeps showing disks that aren 't connected any more

Status in udisks2 package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I have a usb stick that got corrupted by usb-creator (which errored
  while erasing it). Obviously, no matter how corrupt the content of the
  usb stick, Disks must allow me to at least format it as long as the
  hardware is fine.

  I first opened Disks, and it showed TWO items related to the usb stick:
  - Toshiba TransMemory (without any /dev/something)
  - Generic USB Mass Storage ( /dev/sdb).

  The "Format" option was greyed out for both.

  I unplugged the drive. Then I restarted Disks, and it still shows
  "Toshiba TransMemory", though the stick is not even plugged in.
