Hi all,

     I have a imx6  quad-core and android 4.4 to develop.

     And I found a issue in format different volume external storage(mSATA/HDD 2.5")。

     Formatting a 32GB SSD(mSATA) and a 80GB(HDD 2.5") is function work via Settings/Storage/Erase.

     But more than 100GB, it always show me a damaged storage information to me.

     It's very confused to me. Because I took the damaged storage in Windows, it also can read/write data.

     So I took the damaged storage in imx6 again after I format in NTFS via Windows. It can access again.

     I assume there is any timeout mechanism in vold daemon. But it seems not.

     Does anyone have the same issue? May I have your idea to figure out it. Thank you.

Hi,

Have you ensured you have a good power supply for the SATA device? The following thread provides useful details to fix accessing issues with SATA/Android/i.MX6Q:

About imx6q with android 5.0 cannot access usb/sata hdd files from suspend to resume

Additionally, the following document provides information for booting the i.MX6Q from SATA (with Linux):

Booting Linux from SATA on i.MX6Q SABRE AI.


Hope this will be useful for you.
Best regards!
