Comment (by phoudoin):

 Seems like the usb_disk driver have issue to keep a stable communication
 with your device.
 The _HaikuAutoCreated folder is the sign that the volume was actually
 successfully mounted, but the fact that it disappear as soon as you do
 actual access on it is bad news regarding usb_disk <-> device link.

 I've myself an USB3/SATA dock, I've not test it under Haiku.
 Maybe our usb_disk is broken for such device, or, my fear, some USB3/SATA
 adapters have some unexpected behavior that our usb_disk driver or SCSI
 layer don't handle fine yet.

 Googling your device's ID seems to show that it was not yet working fine
 under Linux circa 2012's summer, so I suspect that some quirk were made
 since. Question is which one(s)?
