When USB Harddisk connected, nothing happens



Hi,

When i connect my Maxtor OneTouch 500GB III EXT3 , dmesg says there is a new device connected: Apr 21 21:31:12 localhost kernel: usb 5-5: new high speed USB device using address 2
What happens then is a mistry for me:
1. When i run top: id = 100% load
2. System load goes up exactly to 2.0 2.0 2.0
3. No dev is given to the external harddisk
4. I have to reboot to see the external harddisk
5. cat /proc/usb/devices my terminal hangs
6. lsusb my terminal hangs

This is not the way it should be.
The disk is 100% ok and tested on a Ubuntu Laptop, and i have run fschk.

Server:
Debian Sarge (updated)
kernel-image-2 2.6.8-16
2x 160GB (Software Mirror) md0
2x 200GB (Software Mirror) md1
2GB Memory
