Googling suggest auto-suspend might be the problem. Try
# echo -1 >/sys/module/usbcore/parameters/autosuspend
after a fresh boot and /before/ plugging in the disk.
Fully agree: When I started the system this morning, the disk was again available - but could not be partitioned or formatted. So there has to be something else.
Suspending while a HD via USB is connected doesn't fully work under 11.0, it started to work with 11.1. I know, because I reported it to bugzilla. And you have 11.0
This is the message I got, and the whole thing stopped:

Also, YaST seems to "think" that my disk is 2 Tb whereas it is "merely" one.
It could be that your disk is GPT, not "standard" partition table. One more reason to upgrade to 11.1 More info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GUID_Partition_Table Pay attention to the "Legacy MBR" paragraph. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
