Does anyone have working Mediasonic Probox USB3/eSATA non-raid box?
I just bought
Mediasonic Probox (4-bay non-raid enclosure)
Model: HF2-SU3S2 rev.2
Serial: MAY1301327
When connected via USB3, it is not recognized by the computer, and
harddisks do not show up at all. Nothing in dmesg.
However, when connected via USB2, it works. Probox's JMicron chipset is
recognized, and I can see all harddisks (3 x 3TB). Kernel output is as
follows:
Dec 29 18:48:42 node1 kernel: [354203.357812] usb 2-5: new high-speed USB device number 5 using ehci-pci
Dec 29 18:48:42 node1 kernel: [354203.483253] usb 2-5: New USB device found, idVendor=152d, idProduct=0539

Dec 29 18:48:42 node1 kernel: [354203.483285] usb 2-5: SerialNumber: 000000000000
Specs for computer side are:
OS: Linux 3.12.6
Motherboard: Asus M5A97
USB3 chipset: ASMedia Technology Inc. ASM1042 SuperSpeed USB Host Controller [1b21:1042]
USB2 chipset: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI SB7x0/SB8x0/SB9x0 USB EHCI Controller [1002:4396]
I emailed Mediasonic.ca, but I might get faster response from TLUG.
