NanoPi M4 2 USB drives issue

I have 2 USB drives connected to NanoPi M4. I want to build a software RAID1.

Everything is OK with one drive, but with 2 drives I get I/O errors, causing the RAID to fail.

Issue:

Code: Select all

sudo dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/null bs=1M

works fine.

but simultaneaous execution of

Code: Select all

sudo dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/null bs=1M

and

Code: Select all

sudo dd if=/dev/sdb of=/dev/null bs=1M


fails with I/O errors:

Code: Select all

race condition in USB driver?

Eventually fixed this with a kernel patch similar to this one. USB quirks.

do you have good enough power to maintain 2 USB drivers? (on writing they consume much more energy than on idle\reading)
