Hello,
I have two external USB drives connected to a FC6 machine. Under heavy
load (like gzipping a large file), the drive disconnects itself. I have
this message in my syslog:
Nov 12 19:09:00 jupiter kernel: SCSI error : <3 0 0 0> return code = 0x10000

I have tried two different adaptors, makes no difference. It only works,
if I hook up the external drive to the motherboard USB port, but that's
USB 1.1 - unusable for this purpose.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Chris
