external hard drive wont safely eject

[Brian Kho]

i cant get my seasgate backup plus 1tb to eject ive used unlocker and it says no locked paths, any suggestion aside from shut down/ restarting the system (as much as possible, im avoiding 3rd party programs) i want to find its root cause and stop it
