This my first message here. I opened a bug-report and i was redirected to this mailing list. The bug-report is https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42937 and i found about this mailing list after i uploaded all attachments of all tests. I was really surprised by that. Basically, when i instert a media on a dvd writer (TEAC DV-W28SS-R) attached to a SATA-USB Bridge (Sunplus) plugged to a HUB (TERMINUS) attached to an USB controller there are USB Resets.

I was unable to reproduce the usb reset attaching the SATA-Bridge directly to the USB host controller. I plan to get more usb hubs and maybe another SATA-USB Bridge. Also, i was unable to reproduce the resets disabling the usb 2.0 speed in the bios. Thanks in advance. Guillermo.
