Hopefully the SCSI folks will be able to help you with that. James?
Might be the same issue as this one:

Bart.
Thanks Bart -- your suggested patch fixed the oops I was experiencing.
However I am still experiencing some much more minor problems with the
attaching of these disks. I experience a significant pause (some sort
of timeout perhaps?) when initially accessing the disks which seems to
take about thirty to sixty seconds. The delay is coupled with dmesg
output similar to:
[ 254.478693] xhci_hcd 0000:03:00.0: WARN: Stalled endpoint

The full dmesg is uploaded here: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=39B9mdPR
(Sarah: I disabled the verbose xHCI debugging on my last kernel compile
-- please let me know if you require it to be switched on again)
After a few resets, the drives become active and will happily transfer
at approximately 100MB/sec which I'm quite comfortable with.
I'm not sure to whom I should pose the question as it's a storage
question over USB so please forgive the crosspost.
As always, I am happy to debug and retrieve whatever information is
required to investigate the issue; just let me know what you need.
Thanks once again.
Cheers,
Matt.
