I have an external usb hard drive, however when I try to safely remove it, the device turns off and then the device mounts itself again. I've tried to do 

sudo udisks --detach /dev/sdb

However, the device gets mounted again!

Any solutions? Thanks for reading :)

For removing your device, you should un-mount it:

sudo umount /dev/sdb

in case it failed to un-mount, you should force it by add -f option:

sudo umount -f /dev/sdb
