actionparsnip proposed the following answer:
I would check the BIOS settings to make sure they are set correctly for
USB. You may need extra parameters for your

usb_storage

module:

for a quick fix you could try disconnecting the device then running:

sudo rmmod usb_storage; slep 10; sudo modprobe usb_storage

then reattatch.

If the system is a branded PC (Dell, Acer, whatever) ten their may be
guides or help regarding the issue and their may beoptions you can use
on the modprobe to get better speed.

Also make sure your system is fully updated with:

sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

If you do not have it you could try the 2.26-30 kernel to see if it runs
any better
