Ok well I've got my new 200GB USB 2.0 / FireWire drive. Plugged it in, started transfering files... The first few gigabytes went through no problem, but then came the I/O Errors such as:

Buffer I/O error on device sda1, logical block

And

scsi0 (0:0): rejecting I/O to offline device

Then then my USB mouse and keyboard fail, and the drive unmounts itself. I can plug the drive back in, and mount it again but the other USB devices don't come back. What's even more strange is I don't seem to have the issue if I'm writting to the drive when my USB 1.1 devices are not plugged in. I need a cable to test if the same thing happens with Firewire, but I want to know if I should try to get a new drive, or if this sounds more like a kernel issue?
