Trying to add custom options to "usb-storage" module - modules-load.d

I have an external USB enclosure branded "Anker" that has a buggy UAS implementation, and needs UAS disabled to function properly. I am able to successfully run:

rmmod uas usb-storage
modprobe usb-storage quirks=357d:7788:u

And then mount the drive with no problems.

I am trying to add the usb-storage module options on boot, following the instructions here:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ke … probe.d.2F

I have the following in /etc/modules-load.d/usb.conf:

blacklist uas
options usb-storage quirks=357d:7788:u

However, this is failing on boot, with systemd complaining:

[    4.442155] systemd[1]: Failed to start Load Kernel Modules.
[FAILED] Failed to start Load Kernel Modules.
See 'systemctl status systemd-modules-load.service' for details.

Here is the output from "systemctl status systemd-modules-load.service":

â systemd-modules-load.service - Load Kernel Modules
   Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/systemd-modules-load.service; static; vendor preset: disabled)

Not sure where to go from here....

I think you want /etc/modprobe.d/ for custom options.
