Udisks2, after-unmount script

Hello,

I have a problem with my external eSata Harddrive. If I just unmount it using udisks2 (e.g. in Dolphin), it will keep spinning, so I don't really want to turn off its power supply. I looked around a bit and I found that I can turn it off using 'hdparm -Y'. Is it possible to somehow tell udisks, to execute this command after the unmount for this specific device? Is there maybe an Udev rule, that can be used?

Or is there maybe a completely different way to solve the original problem (i.e. turning off the hard drive after the unmount)?

Thanks.
