Debian is a free operating system (OS) for your computer. An operating system is the set of basic programs and utilities that make your computer run. Debian provides more than a pure OS: it comes with over 59000 packages, precompiled software bundled up in a nice format for easy installation on your machine.

If one unmounts a disk, is that disk still available for write and can the following sync do anything?

Yes to the first question. I could be wrong, but I think you have to run umount on the directory sdx is mounted on, not sdx itself.
