I am running Fedora 20 (updated from 19) and have started having problems with an external SATA disk. It's connected through a USB adapter.
Smartd recognizes it but I see repeated errors in the journal about not being able to update smart data on the disk.
A few days ago, (around the time I updated 19 to 20) the disk after not being used for a while would become unresponsive with attempts to access the directories on it resulting in hangs.
Yet if I reboot after turning the power to the disk off and on again everything is fine for a while. fsck reports the two partitions on the disk are fine and if I run a SMART short test it passes. This is the sort of error I get if I reboot without cycling the power
