Re: NSA 325 V2 Debian Is Possible!

Hello Bohdi - Me again! All has been going swimmingly over the last few days and I've got a Debian based NSA325 humming along nicely - thanks in no small part to your very generous assistance. I've been swapping data from the original disk (which, unfortunately, appeared to have a strange 'Linux RAID partition, and so had to be done externally as the NSA box wouldn't read it. My Mint Linux laptop did, however).

So this meant using a couple of portable USB drives to swap the info and I have noticed something strange that I wonder if you might be able to comment on.

I have both a USB3 drive and a USB2 drive. The USB3 drive will work in either of the two (rear) USB-2 ports, but is not seen and consequently won't work if plugged into the (front) USB-3 port. However, the USB2 drive will work in any of the three USB ports - front (USB-3) or back (USB-2). So clearly the front USB-3 port is operational but will not recognise a native USB3 drive! I believe I may have seen some comments on this issue before but unfortunately can't seem to find them. It's not a show-stopper - after all, I can mount; read and write both of the drives in either of the back ports, but I guess it would be nice to have the extra speed a native USB3 drive could achieve in a native USB-3 port.

As always, any hints,; advice or comments gratefully received.

Many thanks

Mike
