My little Raspberrypi 3 NAS.
Built it for my Chruch.

Thx for sharing
Where have you found your Sata to USB adapter ? (I prefer ordering a good and working, already tested product )

Then you should ask not only about what's written on the adaptor but what's inside (since that's all that matters. Around Raspberry Pis there are still vendors selling severly broken crap when it comes to storage like eg. the infamous GL830 USB-to-SATA bridge -- not only slow as hell but broken and eating your disk's last 2 sectors).
@richprim you could provide 'lsusb' output helping people to identify which chipset is used in your devices.
Just saw the request for the type of adapters, I will try to get that in the next few days, if not it will be some time after I get back from vacation.
Sorry I have not seen this thread sooner.

The device is a Unitek USB 3 adaptor

Actually I have had some disconnects with the drives.
My home server uses a pair of 1tb USB external Seagate drives.
They seem to run with out any problem.
The info I send you above is from a Unitek adaptor that seems to be reliable,
I got them from MCM Electronics before they combined with Newark.
Hope this was of some help.

Most probably it's an ASM1153. Unfortunately ASMedia re-used the 55aa USB product ID for three totally incompatible chipsets (which is one of the reasons I try to avoid them in the meantime and look for JMS578 instead).
I always search for chipsets and not brands since that's the most important thing
Yes I understand, just sometimes hard to find that info for a product.
Rich Prim

Sure, but sometimes when the chipset is not mentioned as part of the product description it gets replaced without notice. You see a couple of reviews mentioning chipset A, then you order and get B (happened to me multiple times and that's why I changed my strategy).
At least on Aliexpress, eBay or Amazon it simply works to shop by chipset, e.g.: https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=n…aps&field-keywords=jms578
Amazon has a nice little USB to Sata adaptor for $19 that has a VL711 chip set.
Is that one any good?
Rich
VL711 chip set
Never tested myself and with Rasperry Pi pretty irrelevant anyway (since RPi is only capable of USB2 and has no UAS support). But this is the list I compiled wrt 'good' USB-to-SATA adapters: http://linux-sunxi.org/USB/UAS…ipsets_in_disk_enclosures
With an RPi just try to avoid the crappy GL830 chipset and you're done (the Raspberry is the bottleneck anyway). But if you plan to use a better ARM board in the future you should already take care about good USB3 and UAS support.
Thanks for the USB to Sata adaptor list.
I printed it for future reference.
You do list the VL711 in your info under the OK column.
Its a Unitek device with a 2amp power supply.
Thanks Rich Prim
