Likely the USB-Cable from XU4 to HD controller - exchange it. Hardkernel confirmed that their cables were poor quality and resulted in many disconnects. Mine were gone after exchanging cables.
I have to say my Odroid only runs once a week - started remotely through IPSEC for offsite backups. So it is not a 24/7 setup.
- t-3 5y agoIt's not the cable - the main IC in the board that the drives plug into "imploded" - there are cracks in package and it's sunken in. I was running it for ~4 years essentially 100% uptime, but took it down in early 2019 and didn't get it set back up until now.
- Helmut10001 5y agoYes, that makes sense. With the cable I was referring to the random drive disconnects, as I had those, too. About the imploded IC: Not much to do about it - either get a replacement board (well, they are not sold anymore). Or try to recover the Raid 1 disks (if this is what you are using) using an external usb-mount. I heard that the raid is formatted with standard mdadm, so perhaps possible to recover without the original IC. Would be interesting to follow up - please report if you recover your drives somehow.
