“Unable to stop drive - timeout was reached†message long after safely removing USB drives

On Bionic 18.04, every time I use an USB drive (stick or 2.5" HD) I right-click the icon, select "Safely remove drive". The icon disappears, the drive powers down, and I unplug. Quite a bit later (I haven't timed it but it's at least 5-10 minutes or so) I get a pop-up that complains about "Unable to stop drive - timeout was reached".
In /var/log/messages I see the following:
May 26 13:01:48 dellfvw udisksd[1043]: Powered off /dev/sdb - successfully wrote to sysfs path /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:14.0/usb1/1-2/remove

What's going on here?

I do not recognize this problem in my 18.04 LTS systems. I made fresh installs. How did make your system (fresh install or upgrade from a previous version)? Standard Ubuntu or a flavour (Kubuntu, Lubuntu ...)? I'm testing now: letting time pass after unmounting a USB pendrive like you describe ...).

I don't understand this. Maybe there is a problem with too new hardware or USB system; "Unable to stop drive", that it wants to but does not manage to poweroff the drive. But it is only a vague guess. Let us hope that someone with more insight in HDD management will see your question and help you :-)

I confirm this issue. My system is upgraded from 17.10 while OP's system was a fresh install. I did not find many other mentions or bug reports on this issue.

Same problem here. All 18.04s & derivatives come up with this message, with my Toshiba external HD. However if I use the gnome-disk-utility to unmount & power down all is well.

Why in the name of all that's unholy was this voted down? The bit about how using gnome-disks makes a difference is the sort of valuable information needed to track down the cause of the problem. I've been able to reproduce it, BTW.

I right-click the icon, select "Safely remove drive". The icon
disappears, the drive powers down, and I unplug.
I was doing the same until now and was confused about it, But I've found the solution. (:
Steps
First, you'd have to unmount the external HDD. To do this you'd have to open the file manager. In my solution, I'd be using Nautilus which ships with the latest Ubuntu. Then you'd see a small icon beside your HDD's name. Click that to unmount the drive.
Now you can right click on the drive and click on "Safely Remove Drive" to remove the drive safely.
Good job! Now the process is done and you'd see a notification that the drive can be safely removed.

This looks clearer: you suggest to first unmount, then safely remove the drive. This may indeed be a suitable workaround to what in my opinion is a bug and a regression in 18.04. It would seem that "Safely remove drive" should automatically take care of all the steps needed to achieve that.

Yes, it should. This workaround has worked for me, please do tell me if it works for you too.

I do not recognize this problem in my 18.04 LTS systems. I made fresh installs. How did make your system (fresh install or upgrade from a previous version)? Standard Ubuntu or a flavour (Kubuntu, Lubuntu ...)? I'm testing now: letting time pass after unmounting a USB pendrive like you describe ...).

After two hours I still have no complaint about "Unable to stop drive - timeout was reached" in my Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.

New laptop (Dell Inspiron 3576) with brand new install. No lingering traces of W10 left on harddisk. :-)

I don't understand this. Maybe there is a problem with too new hardware or USB system; "Unable to stop drive", that it wants to but does not manage to poweroff the drive. But it is only a vague guess. Let us hope that someone with more insight in HDD management will see your question and help you :-)

I confirm this issue. My system is upgraded from 17.10 while OP's system was a fresh install. I did not find many other mentions or bug reports on this issue.
