I had to wait until I was doing backups again to try anything. The 6TB |
| 29 |
drive did fine. The 8TB drive is giving the in use error. The drive is |
| 30 |
unmounted but iotop didn't show anything and the light isn't blinking |
| 31 |
either. I'd think if it was flushing cache the light would flash and it |
| 32 |
would not umount. |

I tried the udev-trigger trick but it didn't work. I don't know how |
| 35 |
long it will stay 'in use' so if anyone has ideas, think and type fast. |
| 36 |
If not, may have to wait until next time to try again. |
