Ben's notes

===== QNAP TR-004 & Intel NUC Skull Canyon ====
Some issues I ran into connecting the QNAP TR-004, a 4 Bay USB Type-C Direct Attached Storage device, to my Intel NUC Skull Canyon (NUC6I7KYK).

==== Thunderbolt USB-C port problem ====
The Thunderbolt USB-C port in my Intel Skull Canyon NUC6I7KYK did not work anymore. The Thunderbolt display-port function did work however. I upgraded the firmware, drivers and tried several BIOS options. In the end I got it working by switching hyper-threading off. When I activated hyper-threading again, USB-C was still working?!

==== QNAP TR-004 problem ====
When I connected the QNAP TR-004, the Thunderbolt USB-C hub activated, but the drives would not enumerate. After trying several kernel options disabling USB auto suspend did the trick.
<code>
# Edit /etc/default/grub
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="usbcore.autosuspend=-1"

# Then update grub
update-grub

# And reboot
reboot
</code>

==== QNAP TR-004 No UAS ====
It seems this device does not support UAS, but uses the slower usb-storage driver.
<code>
lsusb -t
/:  Bus 04.Port 1: Dev 1, Class=root_hub, Driver=xhci_hcd/2p, 10000M
    |__ Port 1: Dev 2, If 0, Class=Mass Storage, Driver=usb-storage, 5000M
</code>
==== Monitoring S.M.A.R.T. status ====
It is possible to monitor the SMART attributes, but not the status, as can be seen in the output below.
<code>
SMART Status not supported: NO DATA ATA commands not implemented [JMB39x]
SMART overall-health self-assessment test result: PASSED
Warning: This result is based on an Attribute check.
</code>

<code>
# Install smarmontools
apt install smartmontools

# Comment out all DEVICESCAN lines in /etc/smartd.conf
# And add the following lines at the end of the file.
/dev/disk/by-id/usb-QNAP_TR-004_DISK00_51323134423032343233-0:0 -d jmb39x-q,0
