    Resolved [Resolved] Problems with my external USB2 disk

    I have an extrenal Lacie 250gb usb2 harddrive. I'm using it to store my music and movies on, because they won't fit on my tiny 20gb laptop hdd. Until just recently I used to watch moves and listen to the music straight from the external disk, but I can't do that anymore
    The movie/music works fine for a few minutes, but then it stops. After 10-20 seconds it picks up again and starts playing for a few minutes untill it stops again.
    I get the same behaviour in both Windows XP and Linux (Ubuntu Hoary).
    I've run scandisk on it (took about 6h to complete *yawn*). I didn't get any errors.
    What could be wrong?
    Is there anything I should try?

    Thanks in advance

    Never argue with fools, they will only drag you down to their level, and beat you with experience.

    Q: How do you tell an experienced hacker from a novice?
    A: The latter thinks there's 1000 bytes in a kilobyte, while the former is sure there's 1024 meters in a kilometer
