Googling provided a solution which seems to work [1][2] which consists
in setting max_sectors to 128 istead of the default 240.

I can do that as root manually but I'd like to have it done
automatically when the device is mounted. My understanding is that a
udev rule has to be created, I would appreciate some help on:
The second link you sent provides some hints for the udev rule (see
comment #12 and/or #74), you may only have to accomodate the rule for
your Debian version.
Thanks, I had seen #12 but not #74 (I realised Launchpad was hiding it??) which seems very detailed and a good starting point.
- Where to put the rule
Udev rules go under "/etc/udev/rules.d/".
Ok
- What to put as the vendor (link [2] mentions vendor) and how to
discover it so that the rule only applies to that very device.
(...)

You can use something like "udevadm info --query=all --path=/sys/block/
sdb | grep -i vendor" to find out.

Greetings,
Thanks for your help.
