Flapping (reconnecting) external USB drive

Hi gurus, during playing movie via VLC or SMPlayer I get several time the error that file cannot be read. File was stored on external USB disk. During this error I get another dialogue message that says the new removable disk was connected..., just as if power goes off and on again or if I power on external disk. But I grep the logs and found some weird mesages (dmesg and /var/log/messages truncated outputs):


SMART returned this (tried options -d [ata|scsi|auto], but finally -d sat worked (because of issue with external disk or something simmilar)):

Code:
[pista@HP-PC ~]$ sudo smartctl -a -d sat /dev/sdc > /tmp/sdc
