It stop working :(

Raymond

I got a 3.5 inch hard drive for my Orange PI Plus. Went to log in it but it was not there. I had the Ubunutu server on it. It was working good for I guess 3 months.

Hooked a keyboard and mouse and HDMI screen to it. Could get nothing but a black LCD screen. So I unplug the power and back in same thing. A red LED comes on the board. The screen goes black and that's it.

I wanted to hook the hard drive up and log in to see if it seen it. But never got to.

Burn another image to another SD card and did not change same thing. Just a black screen. So at lest that's something.

I can only guess maybe the power supply but not sure could be any thing.

Tested another power supply. It shows the watts. It was using like 2.5 watts. But still does not boot up. So it's not the power supply.

3.5 inch drives need 12V and 5V.
You need an external power supply for your Hard drive. OPI has only a 5V connector.

O I guess I said the hard drive size wrong it's a 2.5 I guess the size that can fit in a net book. Small.

OK
What kind of SATA cable you are using?

How many watts was your old psu?
How where you powering the board? Micro usb/Barrel connector/gpio/backpower with usb hub (Wich is very dangerious!)

i doubt if the Opi is capable driving itself and a harddrive with a ordanairy psu

Dat klinkt frustrerend, Raymond. Ik had iets soortgelijks toen mijn mini-pc plots niets meer deed, en ik had echt behoefte aan wat afleiding. In die periode ontdekte ik duospin casino en dat hielp verrassend goed om even mijn hoofd leeg te maken. Vooral de bonussen voor spelers uit Nederland maakten het leuk om te blijven proberen zonder al te veel risico. Na een paar mislukte rondes besloot ik iets hoger in te zetten bij een gokkast met een technologiethema en dat leverde eindelijk een mooie winst op. Sindsdien gebruik ik het als kleine ontspanning na zulke technische frustraties.

Hi folks! I came across https://spinogambinocasino.com through a friend’s post in a Canadian Discord server. He mentioned how fast the payouts were, which immediately caught my interest. I joined and tried the slots first. The themes were fun, and the bonus rounds hit more often than I expected. I didn’t win a ton, but enough to make me smile. It’s become my go-to spot when I want to unwind with something light and entertaining.
