I have used this workaround for a LaCie DVD RW (being used as a USB hard
drive adapter): 059f:0363 (I obtain the usb id for my particular
enclosure using `lsusb`).

 - For temporarily adding the quirks, I stop the kernel module:
`modprobe -r usb-storage` (I may also need to stop dependent kernel
modules, e.g. `modprobe -r uas` beforehand), and then restart with
quirks: `modprobe usb-storage quirks=059f:0363:uw`.

 - For permanently adding the quirks, I followed the suggest in #34
where I use e.g. `sudo sh -c 'echo "options usb-storage
quirks=059f:0363:uw" > /etc/modprobe.d/lacie-quirks.conf'`. Replace
059f:0363 with usb id for your enclosure, and maybe call it "maxtor-
quirks.conf" if that's what you have.

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 14.04.1 x86-64
  wanting to unmout a pata drive (usb attached), I get this (title) "Warning from libparted" when gparted launches.
  Same issue with another pc x86-64
  Errors retries then ignore, shred /dev/sdi fails:

  shred: /dev/sdi : pass 1/2 (random)…
  shred: /dev/sdi : pass 1/2 (random)…231MiB/94GiB 0 %
  shred: /dev/sdi : failure of fdatasync: i/o error on target host

  I reached to shred the drive from a 12.04.4 i386 pc with no error.

  Once shreded, no error on the i386, but still same error on the 2 x86-64]
