I have the latest updates and kernel 3.0.0-12-generic #19-Ubuntu SMP but the
problem still occurs.
When I safely remove the external USB HD, my PC freezes, can't do anything but
push reset button to restart it.

Not sure has to do with this problem, /dev/sdf is the external USB HD I
got problems with.
