USB Storage devices compatiblity list for DNS-323

The Problem

When loading the usb-storage.ko module and plugging in an usb harddisk or flash device, the following error might pop-up:

Code:

Initializing USB Mass Storage driver...
usbcore: registered new driver usb-storage
USB Mass Storage support registered.
usb 1-1: new high speed USB device using ehci_platform and address 2
usb 1-1: device not accepting address 2, error -71
usb 1-1: new high speed USB device using ehci_platform and address 3
usb 1-1: device descriptor read/all, error -71
usb 1-1: new high speed USB device using ehci_platform and address 4
usb 1-1: device descriptor read/8, error -71
usb 1-1: device descriptor read/8, error -71
usb 1-1: new high speed USB device using ehci_platform and address 5
usb 1-1: device descriptor read/all, error -71

Sometimes this is caused by the device requiring more power than is available (-> try to connect it via an active powered usb hub).

If this doesn't work, it might be that there's some incompatibility with the DNS-323 EHCI driver (or even hardware); in that case it might help to connect the non-working device via an USB1.0 switch which causes the device to be handled by the OHCI driver, and thus work (but as a low-speed device :-( )

What To Report

In order to try to hunt this problem down, it might help if there was a list of devices for which is known whether they work or not; so it would be helpful for those of you who have tried to attach external drives to your DNS-323 the following details:

* modell/brand of your usb device
* if possible the usb ids (if it doesn't work with the DNS323, this can be found out by attaching the device to another computer)
* whether it works (properly) as high-speed device (and if not, if you could workaround it via a low-speed hub)

Re: USB Storage devices compatiblity list for DNS-323

The USB port on the DNS-323 is not meant for USB memory sticks.  It is there for the main purpose of being a built in USB Print Server.

Re: USB Storage devices compatiblity list for DNS-323

The DNS does not come with a driver.  If you load the kernel module it works fine.

Here is my USB stick.

kernel: USB Mass Storage support registered.
kernel:   Vendor: Kingston  Model: DataTraveler 2.0  Rev: 1.00
kernel:   Type:   Direct-Access                      ANSI SCSI revision: 02
kernel: SCSI device sdc: 1952256 512-byte hdwr sectors (1000 MB)

   Host scsi4: usb-storage
       Vendor: Kingston
      Product: DataTraveler 2.00000000412
     Protocol: Transparent SCSI
    Transport: Bulk
       Quirks:

Please no discussions whether this is a good or bad thing. It is a simple hack as fun_plug is.

Re: USB Storage devices compatiblity list for DNS-323

I think we should move this topic elsewhere. As I do have plenty of unix experience this is a minor hack as the fun_plug or even a thing you want to do because of fun_plug. It is safe as it is a perfect place for instance to put your log files if you want to spin down you disk drives.

UBS flash memory is dirt cheap. It is simple to setup as well.

I will delete my messages in a day and just leave the relevant messages. I.e usb disk data. Thats why this thread is a sticky thread....

Re: USB Storage devices compatiblity list for DNS-323

I'm getting exactly this problem with a Wester Digital "Elements" 512GB USB drive on my DNS-323 (FW V1.03). I have tried this with Fonz Funplug V0.3 and V0.4, both directly connected and through a powered USB hub - Nothing worked, I get the same error every time.

I will attempt to dig out an old USB1 hub and see if I get any joy with that, but so far really annoyed as I was really looking forward to getting all of my external storage devices hidden away with the networking kit!

Can you plug in USB external HDD's as well, or only flash devices?

Re: USB Storage devices compatiblity list for DNS-323

Okay, I swapped out the USB2 Hub for an old USB1 Hub and now I can mount the drive without any issues, which is better than nothing, it's just painfully slow. If this is a hardware compatability issue then fair enough, but has there been any attempt by D-Link or others to modify or change the DNS-323 EHCI driver?

As for your question b8b, external USB hard drives will work with the DNS-323 (just watch out for this particular issue) the drive I am talking about is a 512GB Western Digital "Elements" USB HDD.

Re: USB Storage devices compatiblity list for DNS-323

I have a 512MB USB key that I had some trouble with:

  Vendor: CBM2080   Model: Flash Disk        Rev: 2.00
  Type:   Direct-Access                      ANSI SCSI revision: 02

The device would work only some times with various results--either it would not show up at all as if it wasn't connected, or it would show up but the file system would not be recognized (/dev/sdc showed up in /proc/partitions, but sdc1 would not show up).  This was with ext2 file system on the USB key.

Originally I didn't have as many problems when the USB key was formatted FAT32 (vfat), but I really wanted ext2 on the USB key...

The solution to my problem was to get any old USB hub (bus-powered or AC-powered, doesn't matter) and use the hub to connect the USB key.  It's almost as if the flakey connection is stabilized by the USB hub.  The speed of the hub doesn't matter either in my case.

I wrote up some instructions on how to make fonz' fun_plug package run entirely from the USB key (so you can make sure the disk drives don't spin up unnecessarily for just writing a log entry or other misc, and so you can unmount the disk drives if desired):

Re: USB Storage devices compatiblity list for DNS-323

Found something out interesting.  I have a Maxtor OneTouch III 320 GB USB hard drive.  On my dns323 with HW A1 (1.04b84) it gets the following:

Code:

USB Mass Storage support registered.
usb 1-1: new high speed USB device using ehci_platform and address 2
usb 1-1: device descriptor read/all, error -71
usb 1-1: new high speed USB device using ehci_platform and address 3

usb 1-1: new high speed USB device using ehci_platform and address 5
usb 1-1: device descriptor read/8, error -71
usb 1-1: device descriptor read/8, error -71

..but it works fine on my dns323 with HW B1 (1.04b84).  I guess more was done in the new hardware besides the SATA controllers.

For compatibility on this page, please list your HW version and firmware.

Re: USB Storage devices compatiblity list for DNS-323

Supertalent Pico-C 8 GB USB stick works fine for me, but it wasn't possible to format the stick directly with the DNS-323, because there was a segmentation fault, when I called "fdisk /dev/sdc". So I used a Gparted Live CD to create the ext2 partition ...

Re: USB Storage devices compatiblity list for DNS-323

I think it's worth having a non-compat list too.  I've found that a Kingston Data Traveler 8 GB does not work.  It mounts, etc, but I'm unable to format it or copy lots of data to it.  Seems to me it needs to sit behind a powered USB hub.  I'm still looking for something that doesn't need a separate powered USB hub and it's unclear on this thread whether the stuff that works will work without external power.
