I have one of those, too. we use it for "offline" storage, and/or
for keeping stuff we want to share amongst the family.

what I'm looking at here is replacing an old RAID-1 backup box that's
becoming increasingly troublesome, has never worked at usb-3, and
its esata connection tends to fail about every other day, so now
I'm stuck at usb-2 speeds. 

Hence the question about usb 3.1 and UASP.

I'd rather have a NAS that supports NFS and/or SMB and lives on ethernet,
so any host on your LAN can use it as a backup target.

[CentOS] Does Centos kernel support usb w/ UASP ?

2019-12-29 Thread Fred Smith
Looking to buy a new usb-attached RAID box for nightly backups, and
I see that many of them now support usb 3.1 with UASP.

Looking at add-in usb 3.1 cards (my motherboard is probably too old,
and only supports usb 3.0) to go with it, but don't know if the old
kernel RH/Centos uses supports UASP.

Chipset dependent? If one can trust the product images on Amazon, most
of them use an asmedia 2142 chip.

Anyone know? 

Thanks in advance!

Fred
