This can be two things.

- an USB failure, maybe a short power outage. Not unusual with an RPI.

- a broken USB device that resets itself when it sees an unknown command
  like flushing the cache. Our failure recovery isn't good enough and
  the device needs exceptional handling in the drive (a "quirk").
