That is correct. Shortly afterward I tried a second usb-sata enclosure.

I didn't immediately notice a difference and though it didn't matter.
You comments served to make me think again.

Unfortunately in this case, human inconsistency (my own, alas) was compounding at least
part of the trouble. 

The more troublesome bridge contains a JMS577 chip, the less troublesome JMS576.

Contains a brief description, but I didn't see much quantitative information.

I've reverted the host to the less troublesome JMS576 and will try to 
reproduce some of the earlier results as a sanity check.

Thanks for rattling my cage!
