I just installed Trisquel Mini and;

1. It takes a bit of "searching" to even find the external drive
2. When found there seems to be no GUI option to "safely remove drive"

LXDE's PCManFM doesn't have that option. There's 'unmount' and 'eject' instead. If you're concerned that the removed disc is not synced, use the Terminal to be sure.

udisksctl unmount -b /dev/sdXn

udisksctl power-off -b /dev/sdX

Or install another file manager to add that feature (Caja).

Thank you.

In my case the driver was not shown at the side like in your pictures, and when I found it through searching it didn't give me any eject or unmount options.
