Synology Virtual Server
Yes this is supported, i designed VirtualHere for this sort of situation
I safely ejected on my test Synology by doing the following:
1. Plug in the USB stick into the Synology
2. In the VirtualHere client, right click on the stick and select properties. Make a note of the Vendor id and Product id. E.g my 'STORE N GO' stick is 13FE for vendor id and 3623 for product id
3. Right click again on the device and select Custom Event Handler
4. Put in the following line to hook the onBind event for this device. (http://www.virtualhere.com/quirks) Make sure to substitute the values of product id and vendor id found in step 2 with your values:
onBind.13fe.3623=sync; umount -f /dev/sdq1; echo 1 > /sys/block/sdq/device/delete
5. Click OK and that will now run that script just before the device is grabbed by VirtualHere for remote access. Hence safely unbinding the device.
Most devices are FAT anyway so its safe to just take without ejecting. Usually its just ext or hfs formatted sticks that are problematic.
