~ I have a Maxtor OneTouch 2HAS5DYX drive that intermittently gives me problems. Like when I make my box go into "suspend" mode for a while, it doesn't mount itself when I reawaken it and I have to unmount and remount it manually ~ when the box is under heavy load (e.g., heat fan is revving). The mini drive has the tendency to shutdown by itself with error messages: ~ [35223.216654] usb 1-8: device descriptor read/8, error -110 [35226.942174] usb 1-8: device descriptor read/8, error -71 ~ I have read it happens as a protective measure when its interfacing circuitry notices that the USB cable does not provide enough power ~ Linux kernel and SMART report logs: ~ http://hsymbolicus.wordpress.com/?attachment_id=652 ~ are not clear to me. The Linux kernel: ~ # uname -a Linux Microknoppix 3.3.7 #38 SMP PREEMPT Tue May 22 06:21:01 CEST 2012 i686 GNU/Linux ~ seems to be handling the disk just fine ~ It is time to discard that drive? Or, can I still use it with extra case and occasionally? ~ thanks, lbrtchx
