/dev/sdc: Unknown USB bridge [0x059f:0x1053 (0x006)]

googling for "usb id 0x059f:0x1053" points to
http://www.smartmontools.org/wiki/Supported_USB-Devices

which indicates
LaCie Porsche design Desktop drive P'9230 ? 0x059f:0x1053 Lacie USB 3.0 4TB external drive -d sat

1TB Porsche Design P'9230 External Hard Drive - SuperSpeed USB 3.0

This would match the smartmontools' web page.

If the page cited above is right, appending "-d sat" to the smartctl's command line should help.

Should this help, to have this issue permanently resolved, upstream smartctl/smartmontools and/or Fedora should add an entry corresponding to this drive to smartmontools's drivedb.h

Well this did the trick and now I have pages of smartctl report on the drive, including a number of errors.

This is an old system, and this drive has been running non-stop for 3 years. But so too has the internal drive; actually longer.

So I am working on building a replacement for this server. The system will be a Cubieboard2 running either Redsleeve6 or Fedora21. Would have been nice to have Centos7 as an option, but still no progress on the C7 arm beta.

One approach is these messages are not major and the drive is good for a couple more years (new 2.5" 1Tb internal drive for the server). The other is I found a Fantom Professional 2TB for under $70 (I had to delete some old Fedora repos as I only had 50Gb left on a 1TB drive).

Decisions.  Decisions.
