It sounds as this bug was fixed in Kernel 3.8.1.
Use System>Administration>Synaptic and install
linux-image-3.8.1-??-generic

  I bought an external USB enclosure for a SATA 2.5" hard drive. When using this USB drive with Microsoft Windows, it works perfectly - I have no problems reading and writing from/to the drive.
  However when using this USB drive in Ubuntu (10.04 as well as 12.04) I can read the data on the drive without a problem, however after I wrote to the drive I started getting corruption errors.
  
  To simplify the detection of the problem I used a new empty hard drive with this USB enclosure.
  I wrote zeroes on about 1GB of the start of the drive (using a different USB to SATA interface).
  When I read from the drive using the commands
  
  dd if=/dev/sdb of=/tmp/xxx bs=1M count=100
- hexdump -C xxx 
+ hexdump -C xxx
  
  The output of hexdump indicates that all that was read were zeroes:
  
  00000000  00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00  00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00  |................|
  *
  06400000
  
  However, after I run the following command (writes to drive):
  
  dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb bs=1M count=100
  
  and then these commands:
  
  dd if=/dev/sdb of=/tmp/xxx bs=1M count=100
  hexdump -C xxx  | less
  
  I get the following output:

  This indicates that although I tried to write zeroes to the drive, what
  was actually written was mostly zeroes, but also these strange blocks
  starting with "USBC". According to the dump these show up at the
  beginning of every block (block size was 1M bytes) that the 'dd' program
  wrote.
  
  The output of lsusb on this system is:
  Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
  Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

  The last entry being the USB to SATA controller that I think Ubuntu has
  a problem with.

  The last entry being the USB to SATA controller that I think Ubuntu
  has a problem with.
