--- SURVEY Are you satisfied with the S-D site? ---

Hello to all of you and thank you again for your loyalty,
Today I want to know if you are satisfied with the site since the change of the server and some touch-ups of the color and the change of the theme of the Forum.
Of course I am aware that there may still be work to do but the biggest part is done
Thank you for your answers

Recently I bought this Ugreen NVME M2 USB adapter, model CM578.

Oryginal dump:
Warning: Spoiler!
 



I successfully updated RTL9210 firmware to 1.32.87.082923 but I still have problem with this enclosure. 

When I connect it to my PC to USB 3.2 gen 2 I get max 425MB/s parrel read. I tried with USB A and USB C cable from enclosure set. I don't have other cables or PC to test it more.

On Raspberry Pi 5 I've got worse problems. Before update enclosure was disconnecting during heavy IO operations from docker containers. Synthethic fio doesn't cause problems. After update things are even wores. Even disk is idle, enclosure keeps disconnecting and connecting. I've tried active hubs, connecting to USB 2.0 with no success.

Hi,
The throughput problem may be due to poor management of the SSD by the RTL9210 controller, try the latest firmware for the SSD if available and if the problem persists, try with another USB 3.2 cable

 

Configuration
Asus Z790 Pro Art, Intel Cpu I7 14700K, Memoires 32Go Corsair DDR5 (6000Mhz CL30), Water-cooling Thermaright, nVidia Geforce RTX3060,  Alimentation Asus ROG 850W, Samsung SSD 990 Pro, SSD980 Pro, Clavier Roccat Vulkan , Souris Asus, Boitier NZXT H6, HP Creative SB Kratos Free Fibre 10Gb Cable CAT8/7, Switch 10/5/2.5Gbps, Casque Philips Fedelis.

a little about firmware rtl92XX
As you see we a have two files. UTNVME - userspace code. UTGDFW - bootloader (aka GoldenFirmware).

All files have a same structure:
Header
Param
Main code

Here is example github.com/lolyinseo/RTL92XX . Two files: UTNVME_A_v1.29.12.011122.bin and ImHex project( github.com/WerWolv/ImHex/releases ).
Download both and open project with ImHex for more info

In flash.
x0 - x3FFF empty space
x4000 - userspace code header (from UTNVME)
x4800 - you config
Code:

02 - param id (U3PHY)

etc ..
xc700 - bootloader header
x13000 - bootloader main code
x20000 - userspace main code

no CRC for whole flash, only for maincode block, bootloader block. So you can build your own dump for flashing the chip if you dont have a backup.
If you have additional information, especially utilities for Linux, please share

Re: NVME USB drives Realtek RTL9210/RTL9220 Firmware Version 1.xx

Hello my frieds.
I apologize for my terrible English.
I'm going to summarize as much as possible what I messed up.
I went to update the firmware on my orico case and put the wrong firmware in, freezing at 14% and failing, but I tried to put in more wrong firmware later, which loaded up to 100%, but left my case unusable.
(First I made a mistake when putting GD A. Then I ended up seeing that all the firmware I was trying was for a model that wasn't dual protocol)
I tried to reset the firmware causing a short in the EPROM, with VCC + CS#, but the LED doesn't even light up or blink when I do this.
When researching the EPROM (SPI UC25HQ40), I saw that it does not have a hardware reset pin. ( www.ucuntech.com/uploads/20220324/3f2b6d...2fd7954a127893e8.pdf )

SSD Case: Orico Dual Protocol SSD Enclosure (10Gbps) M.2 NVMe and NGFF(SATA)
RTL9210B 
Current Situation: SSD appears with zero capacity. Not bootable by the manager. Cannot create partitions using cmd.

Like a fool, I did not do a dump before updating... help?

My chip is the RTL9210 l5CF8ER GNO5B, so I assume it's the A chip, not the B but all the latest firmware updaters I've tried don't let me select the B version .bins.

Warning: Spoiler!


Updating with the B bins did fix my issues with WD SN770 NVME's on Mac but I messed up the LED behavior, editing the config settings like:
LED = 0x1 - Does not turn off the LED, it doesn't seem to do anything. Ideally, I'd want the LED to turn off when idle and on when working, but just always on and blinking when working is fine too I guess.
I also tried LED = 0x2 / 0x3
and 
RM_INTERNAL_RD = 0x1
SUSPEND_LED_OFF = 0x1
The LED is still always on even when ejected.

I must be missing something obvious.
