A friend had probems with a 250GB external Western Digital Passport USB drive. I connected it to Linux, and got:
[ 1038.640149] usb 3-5: new full-speed USB device number 4 using ohci-pci [ 1038.823970] usb 3-5: device descriptor read/64, error -62 [ 1039.111652] usb 3-5: device descriptor read/64, error -62 [ 1039.391408] usb 3-5: new full-speed USB device number 5 using ohci-pci [ 1039.575187] usb 3-5: device descriptor read/64, error -62 [ 1039.862954] usb 3-5: device descriptor read/64, error -62 [ 1040.142662] usb 3-5: new full-speed USB device number 6 using ohci-pci [ 1040.550269] usb 3-5: device not accepting address 6, error -62 [ 1040.726092] usb 3-5: new full-speed USB device number 7 using ohci-pci [ 1041.133774] usb 3-5: device not accepting address 7, error -62 [ 1041.133806] hub 3-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 5
Turned out the USB/SATA-controller was broken, but the drive itself was healthy. I took the 2.5′ SATA-drive out of the enclosure and connected it to another SATA-controller – all seems fine.
