SBS2003 USB Backup Failing
I have a customer of ours backing up there server to a USB hard drive. We are running small business server 2003. It is failing but it does not give me very much information about. It is a 150GB Hard drive with 137GB of free space and it fails everyday after about 18 minutes after making a backup file that is about 4GB. The log is below:

It says end of Media Encountered but there is plenty of space left and theres only 48GB of data being backed up. I checked the event viewer and got this:
