I've already made the partition. Is this something I should do? Or should I just go buy a USB drive? If so, how? I want to completely shut off everything when I shut down my PC. I checked all of the power setting and nothing seems to work.
Does anyone have I have a 8TB hard drive that's somehow not receiving enough Power Problem is that somehow it is not receiving enough power to get the regular sata data cable to read anything off of it. What do I do honestly? External Hard Drive won't power up : I have an old usb 2. I took a GB drive from a working Linux system, placed it in the enclosure and when powered up nothing happen, the discs don't spin. Skip to content.
Deleted files recovering. PC for HDD. Western Digital. The decryption of encrypted image. This entry was posted in Data Extractor. So, it was time for the quest for spinning up the HD. Luckly, I found in hdparm source code the same set features subcommand reported in libata-core, it is issued when hdparm disables puis on the HD. So, doing all commands must be run with administrative privileges :. It's not elegant, especially disabling and reenabling puis to spin up the drive, but it works.
I'm thinking about patching hdparm to add a switch to just spin up the drive, without disabling puis, but again I know nothing about C programming. I still think the best would be a boot parameter to decide what to do when a disk in puis state is found, instead of commenting out the section in libata-core, but again, this is all I can do now.
I searched for weeks a simple solution like that, I was modifying hdparm source code However, the result is the disk spinning up anyway. A simple workaround is using a PCI-ex sata controller: I used one of these little cards, with Asmedia controller and it works, meaning the disks do not spin up until I send the command.
I know these cards usually have limited bandwith beacuse they use PCI-ex 1x 2. If we can't avoid patching libata, might as well disable PUIS drives on boot to get rid of endless error messages.
Take a look at my tentative patch for that feature. I hope someone will consider sparing his time to rework it to kernel standards and propose it upstream. I wrote the patch against clean v4. Remember to set "libata. Mods seth and WorMzy : cut the gaslighting. So i want to know how to make the changes be permanent. Btw i also set the Reverting to power-on defaults to disabled , from ATA Commands but with no succes.
