Annoying problems with lacie external hd (JMicron 0x2339?)

Hi,
This is with 2.6.31.1.
I'm having a lot of problems with a lacie external hd[1]. It seems the
actual disk is a seagate ST375064, and the bridge is a JMicron 2339.
In normal usage what I see is that if I don't use the disk after a
while hear a loud click (as if something got stuck) and then I cannot
use it any more; I have to turn it off and on again.
But then I started to see some problems on one fs, so I ran badblocks
and I noticed a lot of strange behavior. It seems once I get a
read/write error then I get more of them in a row, and after a while I
hear another loud click, and then I only get read/write errors
constantly.
I noticed in 'unusual_devs.h' there's already a quirk for another
JMicron product, so I tried to do the same:
+UNUSUAL_DEV( 0x152d, 0x2339, 0x0000, 0xffff,
+ "JMicron",
+ "USB to ATA/ATAPI Bridge",
+ US_SC_DEVICE, US_PR_DEVICE, NULL,
+ US_FL_IGNORE_RESIDUE | US_FL_SANE_SENSE ),
This seemed to help with the consecutive errors, but not with the loud click.
This is what I get when this click happens:
