I wonder if the electronics for the interface are powered from the
USB bus? That should not be a problem, unless your card skimped on
the USB power. Do you have the problem if only one drive is plugged in?

I bought an Adaptec dual port USB 2.0 card yesterday and connected one
of the two USB drives to it. Then, I told the machine to move some files
from the drive connected to the old USB card to the drive connected to
the Adaptec card.
After a few minutes, the drive on the older card disconnected itself,
once again. I removed the cabled from the card and did some tests on the
Adaptec connected drive - it never disconnected. Eventually, I connected
the other drive to the Adaptec card, too and, 'til now, everything still
works and last night's backup completed successfully. I guess the $12
card is just not up to the task, but the $25 card is.
Thanks for all your help tracking this down!
