[PROBLEM] Geekworm x1009

[Big-Man]

Hello, I connected Geekworm x1009 to Raspberry PI5 and I can't find the disk, the 2.5 NTFS disk is connected.
Tell me if it is possible to use this module to store media files.

Thank you in advance

What exactly do you mean by "can't find the disk"?

[Big-Man]

The disk is not detected in the system, I cannot select it in the menu

[Tim Curtis]

It won't show up in Folder view until you perform

Menu, Update library

and wait for it to complete

[Big-Man]

I tried updating the library and it didn't work out, the circle in the upper left corner didn't appear. Maybe he didn't wait long. Thanks, I'll try to wait longer.

[Tim Curtis]

Please post in English so everyone can understand what you have written.

[Big-Man]

The disk does not appear after the search


I have corrected the message above

[Tim Curtis]

Ok I see the issue.

The drives connected to the board are not NVMe drives and so they won't`show up in the "Local NVMe Drives" screen.

The drives are SATA drives and AFAIK these get assigned to /dev/sda1, sdb1 (2,3 etc)

Try the commands below to see which /dev device was assigned by Linux to the drive.

Code:

lsblk

df -h

Is the external PCIe port enabled (a setting in /boot/firmware/config.txt)? I can't tell since we don't have the complete system info output, only a screenshot of a portion of it.

Quick check from the command line. What is the output of the lspci command?

Kent

Maybe not :-0

Open System Config and set "PCI express" to "Gen-2"
