Oh my god…these harddrive issues seem to be haunting me. I even had a nightmare about it
Ok in short: I have a 3,5" 3tb hdd connected via usb. Quite some time ago the enclosure of the hdd died and apperantly hdd also got messed up. Then I bought a new enclosure, formated hdd but issues still persisted: hdd sometimes not recognized, even kernel panic, I could connect to this hdd. A month ago I finally sent the hdd in, meantime I used another 2,5" 500gb one, working without problems. Now I received a new hdd in return, put it in my seperately bought enclosure and it worked! yeyyy…Until now…Suddenly vero2 doesn’t recognize my hdd anymore.
What I did was install June update…but I thought this couldn’t be the problem.
So now I suspected the enclosure to be faulty and used the original one that shipped with the new hdd…still vero2 can’t recognize the hdd…
Now I read this thread:
Could the June update be to blame??
I don’t want to have these hdd issues anymore
That’s like throwing out the baby with the bathwater - I’ve found that it’s good enough to simply change the electronics (by using a ‘new’ enclosure)

Just this: root@vero_2:~# lsusb Bus 001 Device 002: ID 05e3:0608 Genesys Logic, Inc. USB-2.0 4-Port HUB Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
I did, tried all usb ports without sucess. Tried 2 different enclosures now (with them hdd gets detected by win10 and ubuntu on pc), disc is spinning up normally.
I don’t get it…just tried the 2,5" one and it gets recognized without a problem.
What I can’t understand at all is how could the hdd work at all in the first place? Makes no sense to me.
The one that came with the hdd is a intenso enclosure. Other one I bought is a fantec enclosure with an esata port also.
Stupid question but could someone recommend any good 3,5" enclosure?
