You can try rebuilding the usb-storage driver after turning on usb-storage debugging in your kernel configuration. The resulting debugging output, voluminous though it will be, ought to help pinpoint the source of your problem. Doesn't it seem strange that you have no problem reading the device when you use the sg interface while getting numerous I/O errors using the sd interface?
