The drive wasn't responding. It's likely to be the drive itself, not some failure on the controller or magic in the wire. SSDs are not the ultra-reliable machines they're made out to be, in my experience. The firmware probably crashed. And if that's what happened, it'll happen again under certain conditions -- that is until you get an update that breaks the firmware in some new and bizarre way. _______________________________________________ Soekris-tech mailing list Soekris-tech@lists.soekris.com http://lists.soekris.com/mailman/listinfo/soekris-tech
