i can not say for usb drives, etc, but i do know that i unmounted a floppy
drive one time and even tho knoq showed files were written to disk. later,
when disk was mount to retrieve files, they were not there.
so, any time before i unmount anything, i give a couple syncs to ensure
that data is written.
