I have updated as of today about FreeBSD 8.2-STABLE #1: Tue Dec 27 14:15:28 CET 2011.

here is the relevant output of "lsusb -v" considering the usb drive:

I did the following then:

the add_quirk seems to do something since VID=0x04fc appeared at the bottom of the list. But the USB drive stalls again for some seconds after rtorrent hashing about 800MB: the LED on the drive stops blinking, the drive stops making any seek noises, there is no CPU activity and all attempts to "cd" into a directory on the drive get blocked until the device comes back again. As rtorrent continues the hashing after about 4GB of data, the stalls seem to appear more often - every 100-200 MB.

Is there something else I might try?

Note: I was compiling some 100-200 ports last night on the very same drive and that kind of "low speed" load does not seem to make it stall.

Thanks,
Momchil
