My android 2.3 tablet supports usb. It mounts all usb drives. However there is no mechanism for unmounting in the settings menu.

On direct unplugging usb devices, i get notification " usb mass storage device removed unexpectedly

Is there is an app for unmounting usb storage devices?

Can you pull down the notification bar and dismount from there? – Matthew Read♦ Oct 18 '12 at 19:14

It should normally be located within settings>storage>unmount USB storage. Otherwise look within whatever file explorer you are using on the tablet for USB storage, this should indicate that a usb stick etc is using the drive, and hence give you the option to remove/unmount.

There are apps available but these require root access to my knowledge.
