Hardware • Re: [Software] Power off external SSD on shutdown

@Aki thanks for useful response.

What is the manufacturer and model of your SDD ?

Samsung SSD T5 500GB Model: MU-PA500B

Is the external SSD already shipped with the external enclosure ? Or are you using a third part enclosure ?

I am using original enclosure.

How do you shutdown the computer ?

In LXDE GUI I click Shutdown button. After computer turns off (and when the LED on the SSD goes out) I disconnect the USB cable.

Do you unmount the external SSD before shutting down the computer ?

I am booting the Debian operating system from this external SSD, so the operating system unmounts the partitions before shutting down the computer.

hdparm -y ...

Where should I put this command? In custom systemd service or in /lib/systemd/system-shutdown/ or ...?
