There's a pile of pretty neat USB attached gadgets out there.
We just got a USB 2.0 external case with a 2.5" notebook drive in it. It's a Datafab MD2-USB2A.
On my machine running 4-STABLE as of this afternoon with USB 1.0 ports whenever I try to access it I get this:
gopak# disklabel -w -r da0 auto disklabel: /dev/da0c: Input/output error
and in /var/log/messages I get this:
Mar 4 17:31:32 gopak /kernel: da0: reading primary partition table: error reading fsbn 0
On a 5.0 machine (5.0-RELEASE-p3) with USB 2.0 ports (Intel 845 based motherboard) I get this:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ disklabel -wr da0 auto disklabel: /dev/da0: Input/output error
and in /var/log/messages:

Anyone ever make these things work? Under Windoze 2000 and XP it just works, no hassle at all.
Cheers,
