Hi everybody,
I have some troubles with my new USB 3 Disks. I have two brand new USB 3 disks (mybooks from Western Digital) attached to my machine running FreeBSD 10.0.
My problem is that both disks are only recognized as USB 2 devices although they are connected to the USB 3 ports. I have verified my suspicion with usbconfig:
As far as I understand this output bus 0 is USB 3 (spd=SUPER) but my disks at 0.2 and 0.3 are still connected with USB 2 speed (spd=HIGH).
Here is some additional info regarding the USB controller:
I would be very pleased if someone could give me a hint.
Greetings

I have some troubles with my new USB 3 Disks. I have two brand new USB 3 disks (mybooks from Western Digital) attached to my machine running FreeBSD 10.0.
Code:
uname -a
FreeBSD kirk 10.0-RELEASE FreeBSD 10.0-RELEASE #0 r260789: Thu Jan 16 22:34:59 UTC 2014 root@snap.freebsd.org:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64
My problem is that both disks are only recognized as USB 2 devices although they are connected to the USB 3 ports. I have verified my suspicion with usbconfig:
Code:
usbconfig
ugen0.1: <XHCI root HUB 0x1b6f> at usbus0, cfg=0 md=HOST spd=SUPER (5.0Gbps) pwr=SAVE (0mA)
ugen1.1: <UHCI root HUB Intel> at usbus1, cfg=0 md=HOST spd=FULL (12Mbps) pwr=SAVE (0mA)
ugen2.1: <UHCI root HUB Intel> at usbus2, cfg=0 md=HOST spd=FULL (12Mbps) pwr=SAVE (0mA)
ugen3.1: <UHCI root HUB Intel> at usbus3, cfg=0 md=HOST spd=FULL (12Mbps) pwr=SAVE (0mA)
ugen4.1: <UHCI root HUB Intel> at usbus4, cfg=0 md=HOST spd=FULL (12Mbps) pwr=SAVE (0mA)
ugen5.1: <EHCI root HUB Intel> at usbus5, cfg=0 md=HOST spd=HIGH (480Mbps) pwr=SAVE (0mA)
ugen3.2: <product 0x0189 vendor 0x8086> at usbus3, cfg=0 md=HOST spd=FULL (12Mbps) pwr=ON (0mA)
ugen0.2: <Elements 107C Western Digital> at usbus0, cfg=0 md=HOST spd=HIGH (480Mbps) pwr=ON (26mA)
ugen0.3: <Elements 107C Western Digital> at usbus0, cfg=0 md=HOST spd=HIGH (480Mbps) pwr=ON (26mA)
As far as I understand this output bus 0 is USB 3 (spd=SUPER) but my disks at 0.2 and 0.3 are still connected with USB 2 speed (spd=HIGH).
Here is some additional info regarding the USB controller:
Code:
pciconf -vl
...
xhci0@pci0:4:0:0: class=0x0c0330 card=0x70231b6f chip=0x70231b6f rev=0x01 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Etron Technology, Inc.'
device = 'EJ168 USB 3.0 Host Controller'
class = serial bus
subclass = USB
...
I would be very pleased if someone could give me a hint.
