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?
Just exchanged it for a new Maxtor 250GB USB2.0 enclosure. Same problem!
Looks like a kernel issue afaik. Though I ran a few tests and found out
that the issue seemed to be caused by having USB 1.1 devices (keyboard
and mouse in my case) and the USB2.0 device running together. As load
increases on the 2.0 drive, it just seems to die... Some messages

I just ordered a firewire cable (4-pin to 6-pin), so I'm hoping that it
will solve the issue. But once again I can't be the only one with this
problem =\. Just in case I'm running the 2.6.13 stable kernel.
Cheers,
Vadim
