Hi, just got a drive for short testing...
Complete log available locally - important parts shown below. Case label: Seagate Expansion Portable Drive Model: SRD00F1 # update-smart-drivedb /var/lib/smartmontools/drivedb/drivedb.h updated from trunk # smartctl -a /dev/sdc smartctl 6.4 2014-09-29 r3990 [i686-linux-3.16.0-00046-g68e0854] (local build) Copyright (C) 2002-14, Bruce Allen, Christian Franke, www.smartmontools.org /dev/sdc: Unknown USB bridge [0x13fd:0x3910 (0x100)] Please specify device type with the -d option. Use smartctl -h to get a usage summary # smartctl -d sat -a /dev/sdc smartctl 6.4 2014-09-29 r3990 [i686-linux-3.16.0-00046-g68e0854] (local build) Copyright (C) 2002-14, Bruce Allen, Christian Franke, www.smartmontools.org === START OF INFORMATION SECTION === Model Family: SAMSUNG SpinPoint M7E (AF) No SMART attributes had any "unknown" description, so from an implementation POV we seem to be fine here :-) Interesting lsusb -v parts: idVendor 0x13fd Initio Corporation idProduct 0x3910 bcdDevice 1.00 iManufacturer 1 Seagate iProduct 2 3.0 iSerial 3 303030303030303030303030 So, this device appears to need a "-d sat" entry added to the controller database. I will now proceed with adding an entry to Wiki Supported_USB-Devices... Thanks, Andreas Mohr -- GNU/Linux. It's not the software that's free, it's you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Smartmontools-database mailing list Smartmontools-database@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/smartmontools-database
