Hello Hans Petter,
thank you for your response. I want answer your questions - sorry for =
the
late reply:

1) Does the drive have separate power connected?
A: Yes

2) Have you tried using the disk at USB 2.0 by disabling USB 3.0 in the =
BIOS
A: I used for this a very old PC, a "Hewlett-Packard HP Vectra VL60 with
Intel Pentium III (Copermine) 733Mhz / 256MB RAM / Mainboard D8611-60001
Board-S/N:FR02632024 / PhoenixBOIS 4.0 Release6.0.L /" 1985-2000 Hewellt
Packard Rev, Version: HY.01.07 (15 Jan 2002)" It has no USB 3.0, nor can
boot from USB.

3) Have you tried setting "hw.usb.umass.throttle" to 1,4 or 16, which is
available in 9-stable, when "options USB_DEBUG" is enable.
A: No - I have not known that. But I believe that my pc is more to slow =
than
to fast.

4) "The CAM layer hang you are experiencing is possibly fixed in
10-current."
-> fine, I will give it a try when 10-current becomes 10-release.
Thank you for give me the information that it is a "CAM layer hang" -
whatever this is.
So it is not my fault.

I now used another (older) external 320 GB USB hard drive. With that I =
get
no problems (making partitions, formatting,..)


With best regards,
Harald Langner

Hi,

1) Does the drive have separate power connected?
2) Have you tried using the disk at USB 2.0 by disabling USB 3.0 in the =
BIOS
3) Have you tried setting "hw.usb.umass.throttle" to 1,4 or 16, which is
available in 9-stable, when "options USB_DEBUG" is enable.

The CAM layer hang you are experiencing is possibly fixed in 10-current. =
It
is not a USB fault.
