Hi,

I am trying to use an external SSD drive ( Samsung 850 Pro 256GB ) with Linux in it, and booting it was an external USB drive. The environment itself works totally fine and I got not critical issues using it as a daily driver.

Although sometimes, the system "hangs" very rarely, but in an annoying fashion that makes a bit sluggish the experience.

Initially I thought as I'm using an USB 3.0 adapter, that maybe the UAS driver was buggy, but at my own surprise I found out actually that the UAS driver is not used at all, although the adapter supports it fine.

I am currently using it on a Dell Latitude 7480, and when I use `lsusb` I see that the device is recognized as `JMicron JMS561U` which, by spec, supports UAS ( see http://www.jmicron.com/PDF/brief/jms561u.pdf ).

I am wondering if this device was already tested by anyone of you already, and if not, if I can be a tester for a patch to enable UAS on this adapter.

Thank you very much for the support, as an attachment ( sabrent-uas-logs.md ) you may find all the logs you may need to further help me debugging this.

Best regards,
Julian

All USB bugs should be sent to the linux-usb@vger.kernel.org mailing
list, and not entered into bugzilla.  Please bring this issue up there,
if it is still a problem in the latest kernel release.

Thank you and sorry, I wasn't aware of that mailing list.

Feel free to close this ticket. I just sent an email to that mailing list.

Best regards,
Julian
