On some computers the device cannot be plugged-in, errors: Nov 17 22:00:02 localhost kernel: usb 3-1.2: device descriptor read/64, error -32 Nov 17 22:00:02 localhost kernel: usb 3-1.2: device descriptor read/64, error -32 Nov 17 22:00:02 localhost kernel: usb 3-1.2: new full-speed USB device number 26 using ehci_hcd Nov 17 22:00:02 localhost kernel: usb 3-1.2: device descriptor read/64, error -32 Nov 17 22:00:02 localhost kernel: usb 3-1.2: device descriptor read/64, error -32 Nov 17 22:00:02 localhost kernel: usb 3-1.2: new full-speed USB device number 27 using ehci_hcd Nov 17 22:00:03 localhost kernel: usb 3-1.2: device not accepting address 27, error -32 Nov 17 22:00:03 localhost kernel: usb 3-1.2: new full-speed USB device number 28 using ehci_hcd Nov 17 22:00:03 localhost kernel: usb 3-1.2: device not accepting address 28, error -32 Nov 17 22:00:03 localhost kernel: hub 3-1:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 2 Nov 17 22:00:07 localhost kernel: ehci_hcd 0000:00:1a.0: power state changed by ACPI to D3cold Nov 17 22:01:17 localhost kernel: ehci_hcd 0000:00:1a.0: power state changed by ACPI to D0

Connecting via usb hub makes it work. As far as I investigated it relates to the current level the device pulls.

Device


USB

Unlike other devices, specifications is available.

Installation
Standard USB mass storage device with automatic quirks.

Issues
Device must be plugged-in before hard disk power is connected.

Device comes without power supply, so I had to buy USB_SATA_JM20337 just for the power supply.
