Right, I meant the USB drive which causes trouble, which was /dev/sdc in comment 75.

To debug the drive properly (for running skdump on it), please do

  sudo gedit /lib/udev/rules.d/95-devkit-disks.rules

and comment out the lines which have "devkit-disks-probe-ata-smart". There are three:

KERNEL=="sd*[!0-9]", ATTR{removable}=="0", ENV{ID_BUS}=="usb", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="disk", IMPORT{program}="devkit-disks-probe-ata-smart $tempnode"

# ATA disks driven by libata
KERNEL=="sd*[!0-9]", ATTR{removable}=="0", ENV{ID_BUS}=="ata", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="disk", IMPORT{program}="devkit-disks-probe-ata-smart $tempnode"

# ATA disks connected via SAS (not driven by libata)
KERNEL=="sd*[!0-9]", ATTR{removable}=="0", ENV{ID_BUS}=="scsi", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="disk", ENV{ID_VENDOR}=="ATA", IMPORT{program}="devkit-disks-probe-ata-smart $tempnode"

Please put a "#" in front of all of them.
