Well, the suspicous drive had two connectors, both were connected to an USB port (I think to provide the necessary power). Exchanging the USB cord with a normal single-headed one let the problem disappear. It was funny to realize thast the same drive showed up 22 MB/s on WinXP (max) and only 7 MB/s on FreeBSD (both machines use the same mainboard, ASUS A8N-SLI/NForce4 chipset. On FreeBSD 6.0-STABLE, both cabling-types (dual and single head) run the disk only with 7 MB/s. Nice to hear that Onetouch USB drives work well.
