The disk/docking station still suspends after a few minutes. I'm ready to try recompling the kernel with CONFIG_USB_SUSPEND=n But since for i in /sys/bus/usb/devices/*/power/autosuspend; do echo -1 > $i; done also has no effect, I think it will be a waste of time. I should mention that this is a freshly updated F18 install. Motherboard is a Sabertooth Z77. The docking station is a StarTech, <http://www.startech.com/HDD/Docking/SuperSpeed-USB-3-eSATA-Hard-Drive-Docking-Station-with-Cooling-Fan~SATDOCKU3SEF> and the disk is a SAMSUNG HD103SJ sata drive (1 TB). The motherboard docs don't say anything about USB suspend.
