Western Digital MyBook 250GB USB takes *really* long to be recognized
Hiho! ;-) I just bought a Western Digital MyBook 250GB external USB 2.0 drive and I stumbled upon the problem mentioned in: kern/107495: Fix long wait before WD My Book 250GB (USB) is recognized There's a patch attached to that PR, which I applied, but it didn't help. FreeBSD version is FreeBSD ubm.mine.nu 6.2-STABLE FreeBSD 6.2-STABLE 4: Wed Jun 6 19:58:12 CEST 2007 Symptoms are as follows: when I plug the drive in, it is immediately recognized by umass as: umass0: Western Digital External HDD, rev 2.00/1.08, addr 2 About 10 to 15 minutes later, cam kicks in and recognizes it as: da0 at umass-sim0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0 da0: <WD 2500BB External 0108> Fixed Direct Access SCSI-0 device da0: 40.000MB/s transfers da0: 238475MB (488397168 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 30401C)>From that point onwards, everything works fine, I just finishedrsyncing my entire home directory (about 40gb) to the disk with ehci enabled. I'm just curious if there is anything to be done about the long delay? (not that I care that much, drive is attached to my "server", so it won't be unplugged or be turned off very soon :-)) Thanks in advance! :-) Bye Marc
