Public bug reported: I have an enterprise grade SSD (Ironwolf 125 NAS by Seagate).
I also purchased several different USB3 to SATA cables so it's unlikely that the cable is broken. The SSD is not recognized by the RP4. I've Ubuntu 20.04.2 installed and updated all packages via apt update and apt full-upgrade. I had an external HDD before with an USB Micro B cable and it still works. At first the SSD was recognized and I have it configured in my autofs config file and it worked. Last time I checked it, I couldn’t auto mount because it’s not even visible in blkid. dmesg gives me this: [ 344.308612] sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Read Capacity(16) failed: Result: hostbyte=DID_OK driverbyte=DRIVER_SENSE [ 344.308631] sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Sense Key : Not Ready [current] [ 344.308643] sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Add.

But I cannot let it recognize it by the Raspberry Pi. Power shouldn’t be an issue because it utilizes 0.4A max at 5V which is 2W. The external HDD I had plugged in before has more power consumption than the SSD.
