I’ve had ha HA Green for a few years now and it’s been absolutely rock solid. It started to run low on disk space so I bought a nvme SSD and enclosure and transferred the disk to that. I’m now getting random reboots, at totally random times.
I know what you’re thinking (I am too!) - it’s almost certainly a hardware/power issue. I bought a powered USB hub to eliminate possible power issues, but the random reboots persist. The SSD is a reputable brand.
Can you help me in diagnosing this? I can’t see anything in the logs at all. It’s not just HA crashing and restarting - the whole system reboots (I can check this with uptime after ssh-ing in).
TPLink UH700. Says 1.5A which should be enough for the Crucial P310 - says max about 6W at 3.3v if I’m reading it right.
Worth saying the problem existed before adding in the powered USB hub and adding it made no difference.
EDIT: I’ve had the HA green plugged into a monitor and it spontaneously rebooted moments ago - it did print a lot to the screen but I couldn’t catch it before it rebooted - how do I capture this information!?
Sadly, 3.3v at 6W is about 1.8A required, so still underpowered. The supplied power supply is rated for 2A, but you only have 1.5A rated outputs on the 7 port TPLink hub, and your drive adapter has current requirements of its own. You may need a higher power specified hub, especially if you are thinking of using the other ports for other USB devices.
Probably from undervoltage. Possible data corruption as a result.
Go back and look at the system logs. As the drive is still suffering from undervoltage, it may not have had the opportunity to write to error logs on the drive during the crash process, or may have spewed data in random locations as it was dying. You data integrity is highly suspect.
I strongly recommend you switch back to SD Card operation till you solve your SSD power issues.
