Networking and servers • Re: rPi 5 as useable NAS

Just to follow up, were you able to successfully copy files from one disk to another when both are behind a USB hub on the Pi 5? Or did you end up replicating the problem that the USB port locks up?

Copied three 27G files in one go from hub to hub and no corruption. The source drive (and source port) is the same as the target drive (and target port) previously when I had successfully copied them, which answers the direction question.

Code:

pi@rps5:/media/backups $ ls -al *.img*-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 28494188544 Nov 19 22:04 rpd.img-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 28494188544 Nov 19 22:10 rps5.img-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 28494188544 Nov 19 22:10 rps5.img~pi@rps5:/media/backups $ cp -av *.img* /media/pi/5caebccd-9169-4d80-acdd-a5b795275575/home/pi/'rpd.img' -> '/media/pi/5caebccd-9169-4d80-acdd-a5b795275575/home/pi/rpd.img''rps5.img' -> '/media/pi/5caebccd-9169-4d80-acdd-a5b795275575/home/pi/rps5.img''rps5.img~' -> '/media/pi/5caebccd-9169-4d80-acdd-a5b795275575/home/pi/rps5.img~'pi@rps5:/media/backups $ cmp rpd.img /media/pi/5caebccd-9169-4d80-acdd-a5b795275575/home/pi/rpd.imgpi@rps5:/media/backups $ cmp rps5.img /media/pi/5caebccd-9169-4d80-acdd-a5b795275575/home/pi/rps5.imgpi@rps5:/media/backups $ cmp rps5.img~ /media/pi/5caebccd-9169-4d80-acdd-a5b795275575/home/pi/rps5.img~

Fantastic! Thanks for checking!
