I am experiencing the same issue when I plugged my seagate backup plus in USB 3.0 port and not issue if plugged in usb 2.0. OS: Scientific Linux, kernel 2.6.32 .

And other important observation is the issue is same in windows 7.

Other important observation which may be helpful to trouble shooters is that I experience this issue after I compiled and used the usbreset (usbreset.c) program from
http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/7051/how-to-re-mount-a-usb-stick-after-unmounting-from-nautilus-without-disconnecting

( I used this program on USB 3.0 port only )

Before that there is no such issue.

My mother board is GIGABYTE 970A-DS3P

From my observations I infer the issue is related with USB controllers/firmware which might have been set right by vendors through some control on chipsets/mother boards which is being reset with usbreset mentioned above or by something else by users and going in to trouble.

Hope these observations lead to solution.
( I already used the work-around : umount before googling the issue and is working fine ).
