Description

hrev54105 USB 3.0 Silicon Power 8GB FAT32 formated Toshiba Satellite C660-16D
I can not mount SP USB 3.0 Flash drive again by GUI after unmounting it. There is no mount point in GUI(Tracker/Deskbar). But when i reconnect this flash to port i can mount it again but only once.

I think this is expected behaviour. Unmounting a removable storage medium implies an eject. Usually USB sticks and external harddisks will power down as a result. Does it "work" if you just unmount the filesystem from the command line?

You can uncheck "Eject when unmounting" in Tracker preferences, then the usb drive is not "ejected" and remains powered on (you currently need this if you want to format it from DriveSetup and you have automounting enabled).

Replying to pulkomandy:

I uncheck "Eject when unmointing" and after unmounting by GUI i still have mount point in there.

If i just unmount from terminal then there is still mount point in GUI.

So it's a expected behavior and issue can be closed.
