The problem is one we've seen many times in the past: The device reports that it contains one sector more than it really does contain. When the system tries to access the non-existent "last" sector, all sorts of problems occur. In your case the device returned no data, together with an indication that a problem existed (Check Condition status) and no indication of what the problem actually was (no Sense data). The patch below should fix the problem.
