kotrfa · RPi 3 stucks because of a HDD kotrfa January 12, 2017 at 9:00 AM

OK, I was afraid of that... Will probably use some USB Flash, that should be enough.

And I just though that NOOBs starts somewhere before the whole system, hence there is no performance penalty.

Thanks

Hi,

I am user of LibreElec official installed through NOOBS:

I have 3 ampers power supply and no other devices attached to it except one regular external HDD, so it shouldn't have a problem to power that device.

Nevertheless, I can see it has some troubles. First of all, when I boot the RPi up with the HDD plugged in, it tries to spin that up for several times and succeeds about 5th try or something. But now, when I let the RPi turned on over night, the system is messed up - very slow and the disc is not working. It is not even possible to turn the device off (by OS, I can of course unplug it from power source, but the disc suffers...). Although reboot --force works...

Here is my journalctl dump.

I had a problem with corruption of a filesystem (fortunately, repairable) with this RPi and this disc. I thought it was just some random accident shutdown, but now there are to many problems with this.

Can anyone help please?

Thanks
