help using bind/unbind to power on/off USB drive

Question

I'm trying to power on/off an USB drive using bind/unbind command following this post, can someone please point me to the right direction where to find tutorial/explanation on bind/unbind usb drive (found some posts but very old and commands are deprecated and I'm not that knowledgeable about linux to understand everything in man)? what I can't figure out is how to find the bus-port number in this sample echo command

echo '1-2.2:1.0' > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/r8712u/bind   # switch on

in my case, I think I have to change the driver to usb-storage, so the command would be

echo '?-?.?:?.?' > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/usb-storage/bind   # switch on

which command should I use to find the bus-port?

Answer 1

After further search, found some tips in identifying usb device number here, in my case, it was a Samsung USB drive, which is listed as device 2-2:1.0, so the command is

echo '2-2:1.0' | sudo tee /sys/bus/usb/drivers/usb-storage/unbind
echo '2-2:1.0' | sudo tee /sys/bus/usb/drivers/usb-storage/bind
