All that was in /var/log/syslog was cron output and various samba
messages detailing a seemingly endless "squabble" between my system and

dmesg provided some info that may or may not be useful.
Initializing USB Mass Storage driver...
scsi0 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices
usb 1-3: reset full speed USB device using address 3
scsi: Device offlined - not ready after error recovery: host 0 channel 0
id 0 lun 0
USB Mass Storage device found at 3
usbcore: registered new driver usb-storage
USB Mass Storage support registered.
