Title:
  Western Digital drive unmount won't spin down

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  After unmounting my Western Digital portable harddrive, the drive
  continues to spin for 10 minutes, even if no data was written to the
  drive, resulting in an awful "unsafe removal" noise when it is
  unplugged. It seems like the hard drive heads aren't syncing. After
  posting on the forums, a solution was found with a nautilus script.
