No, I did not try it. Ms XP had the same problem when connecting over 
USB. However, connecting over firewire to XP was ok.

Due to lack of time for further experimenting, the plextor is now built 
in into my freebsd server as a normal ide device.

So this is now a non-problem.
Thanks for your reply though,

Guido.
