Hi, Error 5 means IO error, so probably the transport layer, USB or lower, is to blame. Some things to check: 1) Make sure the connection for your memory stick is Ok. 2) Make sure there is enough power for your memory stick. Regarding memory sticks: Other operating systems do a port bus reset when the device has a problem. On FreeBSD we just try a software reset via the control endpoint. I guess that it is a device problem you are seeing. The USB stack in FreeBSD is faster than the old one, and maybe the faster queueing of mass storage requests trigger some hidden bugs in your device. When the problem happens try: sysctl hw.usb.umass.debug=-1 --HPS
