Hi Bastian,

Here are the errors I have with kernel 3.17-1 (Linux omega 3.17-1-amd64 #1 SMP
Debian 3.17-1~exp1 (2014-10-14) x86_64 GNU/Linux):

Nov 22 09:18:02 omega kernel: [ 1120.392369] EXT4-fs (sdc1): mounting ext3 file system using the ext4 subsystem
Nov 22 09:18:02 omega kernel: [ 1120.411984] EXT4-fs (sdc1): mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. Opts: (null)
Nov 22 09:18:10 omega kernel: [ 1128.721413] end_request: critical target error, dev sdc, sector 12447
Nov 22 09:18:10 omega kernel: [ 1128.721433] Aborting journal on device sdc1-8.
Nov 22 09:18:32 omega kernel: [ 1150.220476] EXT4-fs error (device sdc1): ext4_journal_check_start:56: Detected aborted journal
Nov 22 09:18:32 omega kernel: [ 1150.220495] EXT4-fs (sdc1): Remounting filesystem read-only

I found that other people have similar problem with recent kernels,
for example:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1366538

This external USB drives works perfectly fine with any kernel <= 3.14
(when booting this kernel on the same machine, so exactly same hardware/softare
installed).

And with a kernel > 3.14, I'm not able at all to write on the disk.

That's why I'm almost sure the problem is in Linux kernel.


Cordialement / Best regards.
