You should never do this. Always unmount the disk
before removing it:
1. If there is caching of disk write data, then
removing the disk without unmounting it will not cause
the data to be flushed. So, data integrity is not
assured.
2. Driver data will be in an unknown state if not
cleaned up properly.
Please find the attached source.
Argh! Don't send attachments to e-mails sent to
mailing list. Bad etiquette. Please post it in
pastebin.com and send a link.
