To connect a USB 3.0 hard disk drive to a Linux client
To connect a USB 3.0 hard disk drive to a Linux client the following steps are required:
- Add a device to the UAS (USB Attached SCSI) module exceptions.
echo options usb-storage quirks=idVendor:idProduct:u | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist_uas.conf
Tip: An example for Asmedia and Transcend USB hard drives:
echo options usb-storage quirks=0x174c:0×5106:u,0x0bc2:0×2322:u | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist_uas.conf
- Regenerate initrd.
An example for Ubuntu:
sudo update-initramfs -u
- Reboot a machine.
