That timeout is the error I was looking for.  I get that with a couple
of different usb devices, including my usb printer cable.  I don't know
how to fix this, except that it makes the device not work at all. 
Sometimes when I upgrade the kernel this problem occurs no more for
certain devices.  Anyway, looks like there is a subtle incompatibility
between your drive's chipset and your linux drivers.  Not sure what to
do except to contact the maintainers of the usb-storage driver (report a
bug).  Of course the problem could be elsewhere.  

Sorry to not be able to give encouraging news.  My oxford-based drives
work great, though.  I've also had good luck with firewire enclosures
lately too.
