The problem is that the detach event can be caught only too late to
unmount the device properly. How may it be possible to sync a disk ``as
soon as it is detached'' (that is when it is not physically connected to
the computer anymore)? Mounting the disk read-only may be a workaround,
just as not caching writes (default behaviour of some versions of
Windows) and syncing the disk all the time, but this is not as reliable
as the mount system provided by Unix and Unix like operating systems.
AFAICR, this is the sole weakness of the FreeBSD operating system I know
:) And since it is, according to me, an operator error, the best we can
do is to use the system as it was designed for ;)
