pccobbler Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 I bought a not heavily used Neutron GTX 120 GB. I use it in a Vantec USB 3.0 external enclosure to run Devuan Linux. The SSD is nice, but it's got one quirk. When I power-up, I must wait 5-10 seconds between pressing Esc and F9 (this is on an HP laptop) because the SSD does not power-up immediately. I must wait until I see the blue lights on the enclosure before pressing F9. At first I thought the enclosure was faulty, but I switched enclosures and nothing changed. I've used Intel, Crucial, Toshiba, Mushkin, Samsung, and other SSDs I've forgotten, all with Linux via external enclosures, and never seen this behavior. I don't believe there's newer firmware than the current M311. Please correct me if I'm wrong. 1) Has anyone else seen this behavior? Were you able to mitigate it? 2) I ask that Corsair support add this bug to their list for the next version of firmware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee Corsair CJ Posted September 4, 2020 Corsair Employee Share Posted September 4, 2020 This is likely a quirk between the SSD's onboard controller and the SATA -> USB controller in your enclosure. We have no solutions for this behavior at this time unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
