Hi,

By now I know it seems to be a kernel bug so the script is not relevant, see 
the reply of Tobias Powalowski:

this is exatcly what i meant with usb2 and hd problem some days ago.
ok to solve your problem go to this bug and grab the PKGBUILD and 
usb-storage.patch file, check out the kernel26 files from testing and rebuild 
the kernel. It will fix your problems.
