i found a workaround: the device can be removed using the sysfs:

source: "SCSI - Hot add, remove, rescan of SCSI devices" http://www-941.ibm.com/collaboration/wiki/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=3625

in short:
1. umount all partitions from the device
2. find the right SCSI ID with "cat /proc/scsi/scsi"
3. replace the SCSI ID in the following command (use tab completion ;): "echo 1 |sudo tee -a /sys/bus/scsi/drivers/sd/2\:0\:0\:0/delete"
