Сбой внешнего USB-накопителя

у меня есть внешний диск USB 2.0 WD My Book Mirror Edition, работает в режиме RAID 1 (зеркальное отображение). Некоторое время назад жесткий диск начал отказывать: он перестает отвечать (каталоги не перечислены, возвращая ошибку после Большого тайм-аута). Иногда это срабатывает за недели до сбоя, иногда – за несколько часов. Небольшие операции записи (например, удаление нескольких файлов или редактирование небольшого файла) не наносят вреда, но при копировании больших файлов на диск по сети или создании архива локально, дампы ядра. Также интересно отметить, что как только ядро отказало, Linux не хочет перезагружаться нормально (reboot зависает); при выключении Linux box кнопкой питания WD drive не переходит в спящий режим (как обычно): светодиоды продолжают работать, нажатие и удержание кнопки "shutdown" на задней панели диска ничего не делает; помогает только отсоединение шнура питания.

потом опять несколько сообщений reset high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 2.

Я просмотрел и прочитать подобные отчеты об ошибках здесь и здесь и я попробовал:

• я обновил ядро с версии v2.6.26-2 до 2.6.32-5, что не решило проблему.
• говорят, это может в кабеле. Я попытался заменить кабель USB-к-miniUSB (который соединяет внешний привод с компьютером) с другим одним. Никакое изменение.
• кто-то предлагает попробовать другой USB-порт. У меня есть только 4 внешних порта USB, попробовал еще один без успеха.
• говорят попробовать uhci_hcd. Я размонтировал устройство, выгрузил ehci_hcd и снова установила. Разница была в том, что теперь в лог я получаю reset full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2 и подобные дампы ядра через некоторое время.
• говорят echo 128 > /sys/block/sdb/device/max_sectors. Я попробовал это с ehci_hcd без успеха (примечание: Я выполнил эту команду после того, как диск был смонтирован, но перед его активным использованием).
• я научился smartmond и периодически проверять выход smartctl: температура привода в порядке, количество сбойных секторов и неисправимых ошибок равно 0.

ничего подозрительного сообщает С. М. А. Р. Т. за исключением, может быть следующее:

Aug 16 12:40:12 kernel: [43715.314566] program smartctl is using a deprecated SCSI ioctl, please convert it to SG_IO
Aug 16 12:40:13 kernel: [43715.705622] program smartctl is using a deprecated SCSI ioctl, please convert it to SG_IO  

конечно, я не пробовал все комбинации выше. Но, к сожалению, у меня закончились кардинальных идей. Если кто-нибудь может посоветовать что-то конкретное по этой проблеме, добро пожаловать.
