That time is due to the timeout in the usb-storage driver where it wants
to wait 5 seconds before scanning the device to handle devices that take
a while to get started up properly.

If you feel you can safely lower that time, just write a new value (in
seconds) to /sys/module/usb_storage/parameters/delay_use

Hope this helps,
