^ SD card and PSU issues - armbian forum
<IgorPec>
check here
<tan33>
this is only for the SSD driver. the cubox is using original power supply and runs fine
<IgorPec>
well, we provide software
<[TheBug]>
you actually didn't answer my question fully or if you did I think you have your answer
<[TheBug]>
if the SSD is drawing power from the board
<[TheBug]>
you have a too weak PSU to provide both board power and SSD power
<[TheBug]>
if you have a seperate power supply for the drive
<[TheBug]>
then the seperate power supply is a problem
<[TheBug]>
because effectively the sata controller tries to bring up the drive and it can't bring it up cause it's under powered
<tan33>
the eSata comes with the SATA connector and a USB connector for power. i had the usb power connected to a usb phone charger, but it wasnt working when a normall HDD 2.5 drive connected it would turn it on. but when connected to my pc it would turn the HDD on, but still it wont show up on the cubox

how much Amps is your phone charger?
<stipa>
do you have a DMM?
<tan33>
5V 1A
<tan33>
DMM? not sure what that is
<IgorPec>
well, it is also possible that this feature stop working
<IgorPec>
1A is on the edge
<stipa>
i've seen spinning rust disks over eating 1A
<tan33>
but the SSD should be fine, no?
<tan33>
i will get more powerfull phone charger
<IgorPec>
you have to rule out hardware defects before reporting. this is rule number one
<IgorPec>
we lost thausands of hours because people wants to power those devices with cheap PSU
<tan33>
i understand
<IgorPec>
and we don't sell anything to you. that's the problem
<stipa>
yeah, if there's not enough power the SSD won't boot itself
<stipa>
same with hard disks

<stipa>
DMM is a Digital MultiMeter

<cats> IgorPec: I fixed download maps, will test it locally later and confirm it works before pushing it up
<Armbian-Discord>
<cats> oop, wrong channel
<tan33>
is df the best way to see if it sees my drive?
<stipa>
'lsblk'
<stipa>
'df -h'
<tan33>
cubox-i:~:% lsblk

<tan33>
using a 5V 2A power supply, and the SSD doesnt show up
<Armbian-Discord>
<IgorPec> well, it depends on what you need it for
<tan33>
also i cant find the eMMC drive.. it doesnt show
<Armbian-Discord>
<IgorPec> i suggest you to use forums.
<Armbian-Discord>
<IgorPec> there are not many people that uses this hw
<tan33>
no probs. sorry for the problems guys :)
<tan33>
thank you
<Armbian-Discord>
<IgorPec> and to get live chat with this specific board expert is like trying to get to the moon
<tan33>
'=D
<tan33>
only using it because i bought it in 2014... it runs plex ok, but wanted to boot from SSD or have NAS drive connected to eSata for it to be faster,,,
<stipa>
you could bake your own image
<stipa>
maybe you could get it running
<Armbian-Discord>
<IgorPec> ... and fix problem in sata driver in the mean time? 😉
