I have a similar problem.
Somewhee in the next few weeks I intend to make a ew small changes in the usb-storge modules to do things like periodic-by-volume SYNCs, and maybe rail the throughput in other ways, probably with some way to specify for what devices, especially after connects; this would let well-behavewd hardware un full-out while preventing fails on less well-designed stuff.
I am saving the specific email that I am replying to, and if/when I get this done, I'll post a message or something.

Must be your kernel config.

I figured it out, its the ehci-hcd driver, it seems my drive doesn�t like it. If I only enable uhci-hcd it works fine. Maybe its also the PCI-USB2.0-Card which causes the problem, who knows???
What I test now is, if the speed is OK.
