https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=216282 --- Comment #22 from audioprof2001@xxxxxxxxx --- 1 Fail, yes.. ... 4 worked 1x time, because did not waited for hdd platter to stop before turn-on. inertia. ... 10 works but probably more is required for 20TB. The heavier the platter = more time. Large HDDs "fail" because are sealed with Helium, has gas leak, was Not filled enough at factory, does Not-pass Quality Control. Temps are higher, does Not lower fast at Idle. = more spin-up time, sold cheaper without warranty. LOL™ creating /etc/modprobe.d/usb-storage.conf adding delay_use 15 Fails. Parameter invalid, but deletes the folder /sys/module/usb_storage Edit: $ sudo tea /sys/module/usb_storage/parameters/delay_use 10 Save works but... each reboot Linux changes back to 1 --------------- $ sudo echo 2 >/sys/module/usb_storage/parameters/delay_use bash: /sys/module/usb_storage/parameters/delay_use: Permission denied Fail, because modprobe usb-storage is loaded $ sudo modprobe -r usb_storage [sudo] password: libkmod: ERROR ../libkmod/libkmod-config.c:712 kmod_config_parse: /etc/modprobe.d/usb-storage.conf line 1: ignoring bad line starting with 'delay_use' modprobe: FATAL: Module usb_storage is in use. $ sudo modprobe -r usb_storage libkmod: ERROR ../libkmod/libkmod-config.c:712 kmod_config_parse: /etc/modprobe.d/usb-storage.conf line 1: ignoring bad line starting with 'delay' modprobe: FATAL: Module usb_storage is in use. $ sudo modprobe -r usb_storage libkmod: ERROR ../libkmod/libkmod-config.c:712 kmod_config_parse: /etc/modprobe.d/usb-storage.conf line 1: ignoring bad line starting with '2' modprobe: FATAL: Module usb_storage is in use. $ sudo modprobe -r usb_storage libkmod: ERROR ../libkmod/libkmod-config.c:712 kmod_config_parse: /etc/modprobe.d/usb-storage.conf line 1: ignoring bad line starting with 'delay' modprobe: FATAL: Module usb_storage is in use. $ sudo modprobe -r usb_storage libkmod: ERROR ../libkmod/libkmod-config.c:712 kmod_config_parse: /etc/modprobe.d/usb-storage.conf line 1: ignoring bad line starting with 'delay-use' "Works" -- You may reply to this email to add a comment.
