I had the same thing with my USB hard drive enclosure on the laptop, and
it ended up as a power issue (or lack of it). FWIW the laptop I have is
a Dell L400. 
 
Try using a powered hub to see if that solves the problems. 

I had first borrowed my brother in-laws enclosure and just put it down
to bad usb in 2.6 (this was with FC2 tests), and the 2.4 Kernel I had
access to worked (but it wasn't the laptop and had a good PSU). 

When my enclosure is underpowered the drive constantly seeks just making
lots of clicking noises.
