@grendel Sure you're certain you need a new cable harness? A few years ago, I replaced the HDD power switches myself, they’re just small smd transistors. 1 and 2 (Channel A) power on simultaneously, followed by 3, 4, and 5 (Channel B). There’s a built-in delay between the two channels to help manage voltage spikes that occur during HDD initialization — Channel A starts first, then Channel B.

@ebin-dev@mtlmarko189 Not sure if this issue can be resolved. I've been running tests with different chip versions and discovered that the first batch of Helios64 devices includes an unreliable chip. Take a look at this: root@helios64:~# lsusb -v -d 0bda:8156 | grep bcdDevice bcdDevice 30.00 bcdDevice 31.04 According to cnx-software 30.00 corresponds to RTL8156 31.00 corresponds to RTL8156B 31.04 correspond to the third version, RTL8156BG So far, the RTL8156BG has been working better with Linux kernel 6.12.42. P.S. The workaround suggested by @ebin-dev helps reduce the symptoms, but the NIC is still sending corrupted packets.
