Re: [solved] External USB-HDD is not recognized

Have you ever successfully used the disk on that system?
Does it work on other systems?
Does it work on a parallel windows installation (if present)?
Does it work with the lts kernel?

Yes, around one year ago.

not tried yet.

No, its not automounted. But it should be ext4, so no surprise

Sorry, but i don't know what you mean with lts-kernel.

https://www.archlinux.org/packages/core … linux-lts/

The disk spent the last time in a box?
Can you hear it spin up?

Re: [solved] External USB-HDD is not recognized

I would look into this:

Dez 16 20:34:13 Django laptop-mode[4115]: enabled, not active

Just in case some daemon is doing something to the usb port power state that prevents the disk from operating properly. It could be hardware failure too, disks can fail even without being used.

That was it. Uninstalled laptop-mode-tools and now its working.
But what is wrong with the laptop-mode? I would like to use it in the future again.

Re: [solved] External USB-HDD is not recognized

Why does "enabled, not active" mean ...? ... oh well.

Likely autosuspend or some power draw limitation (I've no idea whether the latter is possible/supported)
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/La … utosuspend
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Po … utosuspend

Since the device generally responds, the USB wakeup might be "too slow" to provide enough power to spin the device up and there's somehow no resp. error -110 (so no retries for sure)

Re: [solved] External USB-HDD is not recognized

I reinstalled laptop-mode-tools and it still works. So, i guess, it could be another problem. Maybe the Sata-Connection to the HDD (its just an usb-case) was lose or something...

Anyway, thank you guys.
