It may not be the USB drive. I have one that daoe the same, usually only
after long periods oh high (in)activity.
On another node, no problems ever using that same drive.
On the system with the problem, CentOS 4.7, Via Kt-400A chipset.
One the other system, Centos 5.3, Via KT-880 chipset.
I've not bothered to google yet, since it seems to occur after leaving
it attached for long periods and what I do doesn't take long
Maybe there's a clue?
