David, are you using the same USB bridge when you connect this drive to
the Ubuntu desktop?

Christian, assuming he is, would that indicate the problem is likely to
be with some part of the particular Linux kernel image he is using on
his ARM dev board?  Would it be helpful to have the "smartctl -r" output
from the Ubuntu desktop box as well, in order to compare the two?
