  • I tried the method with quick removal earlier and it still added an unexpected power loss. It seems that it stops writing data to the drive, but still powers it. Regarding the last part, by standard backup machine you mean a laptop with an OS? Commented Jan 3, 2015 at 18:57
  • Yep, standard laptop. And going back to quick removal... Did you also do safely remove? Just because it is optimised for quick removal doesn't mean that you shouldn't do safely remove... I have seen data go corrupt far too many times from people not safely removing! Commented Jan 3, 2015 at 19:23
