USB drive mounting error

  • I have a USB 3 drive attached to the RPi4 and I've setup smb on OMV. I have mapped the drive on Win 10 PC. I keep losing connection to the drive from my PC. I have restarted and attached the drive in a different slot but to no avail. Appreciate your advise, thanks

    In the OMV log, I am getting this error repeatedly, see below

  • What model?


    Is it only powered from the USB3? Or does it have a power supply?


    Is your Pi using the Official power charger?


    Please, the more info of what you have/ how you have it configured will give a better view of what to do, ;)

  • Thanks for your prompt help


    Samsung M3 1TB USB 3.0 Portable

    yes, no external power supply

    yes, Official power supply


    I think I might have found the problem

    I unplugged the drive and plugged it back in and did a OMV reboot.

    I have just powered down the RP4 through OMV and manually restarted it and everything seems to working:)

  • Just take in consideration that some of these type of drives have the internal controller set to put them to sleep when no access is made.

    (Don't know if that one will have that function but a 4TiB Toshiba I have enter's Sleep Mode and I can't wake it up unless I reboot, even in Windows)


    Let's hope all is good now, ;)
