If there is only one USB disk connected:
# eject /dev/disk/by-path/*usb*:0
Provided you let udev create links for you. BTW, the /dev/disk/by-id/
symlinks are nice for static mount points in /etc/fstab.
After a disk was mounted, eject also accepts the mountpoint as parameter
and will unmount the disk before it tries to eject it.
