Comment 65 for bug 61235

Hi all
I have a Freecom USB2 external HD and I have the same problem.
Basically if I copy on it a large file or I do many access to it,
through for example rsync, the HD goes in hang and I have to restart it
to make it work again.

The problem is so reproducible that I can't use the HD.

I verified the proposed solutions above in this emails thread like
    echo 1024 > /sys/block/sdX/device/max_sectors
    echo 1 > /sys/class/scsi_disk/X\:0\:0\:0/allow_restart
but the problem is still there.

I'm using the kernel version 2.6.22.1-41.
Thanks in advance for the help
