I have a pi 3b running home Assistant as a Docker container with a ssd connected to the usb port. It has been working fine since I swaped but out of nowhere it looks lite the ssd is not receiving any power. I connect the ssd to a port on my pc and then it received power. Do I need to get a powered usb hub or is the pi broken. The adapter is from plexigear and the ssd is a Kingston 120gb I believe.
Does the SSD and the adapter work on your PC ? Have you tried it on all the Pi’s USB ports ?
When connected to a PC it get power but I can’t find it, I don’t know if this is because my PC is not supported by the rasbian os. And I have tried it on all the ports.
So I managed to get power to the ssd, but when the pi is power on it only show the red light and not the green. Tried booting with the sd card and then it works fine, also checked if usb boot was enabled and it was.
