Is the external HD powered by a power module, or powered via USB? Most 2.5" drives are powered by USB, and most 3.5" drives have an AC module. If your HD is powered by the USB power, it would be worth trying to put a powered Hub between the computer and HD. Power up the Hub/HD first, then power the computer. I have seen that error on some devices when they are not ready or not fast enough when the host is assigning addresses.
