this has been my experience up to one time that after clicking 'unmount'
_and_ drive led went out, i removed disk. yet, when i went back to add
to disk, i did note that file i had copied to disk was not there. so, to
remain on safe side, i went back to old habit of 'sync' 3 time to ensure
data buffers are flushed.

this occurred in in knoqueror, and i was using navigation bar to do mount
and unmount. do not recall for sure if it was under 'services' or 'system'.
