Good evening.
The BPI M1+ is powered via the side micro USB port.
(next to the 5V SATA connector)
-
Hello, the SSD connected to the SATA port on the BPT M1+ works under Ubuntu 16.04 with an adapter and no external power supply. However, to rule out that as the cause, I powered the SSD externally, and it's still not recognized. So far, I've only found the Ubuntu 16.04 image that supports the SATA interface on the BPT M1+.

Good evening.
I spoke too soon. I wrote this:
Armbian_23.11.1_Bananapi_bookworm_current_6.1.63.img
but it doesn't support SATA either.
Even if anyone has another idea or a working BPI M3 with SATA, I'd still be grateful for any suggestions.
-
Okay, that explains why the SATA connection works on the BPI M3 but not on the BPI M1+.
So, does anyone know of an image that supports the SATA connection on the BPI M1+ and is newer than Ubuntu 16.04, which is currently running on my BPI M1+?

Hello
I've now tested the image:
Armbian_community_26.2.0-trunk.332_Bananapim3_forky_current_6.12.67_minimal.img
on the BPI M3 and I'm happy... SATA works really well. Maybe this will help. -

Out of desperation, I plugged in an SSD via USB adapter, and it is recognized as:
/dev/sda:
Detected
One might think the SATA connection is defective, but when I boot with the Ubuntu 16.04 image without changing anything, the SATA SSD is recognized! So the SATA connection on the BPI M1+ works, and so does the SSD. It's definitely the Armbian image that's the problem, but where exactly is it?
-
BPI M1+ tested with:
Armbian_23.8.1_Bananapim1plus_jammy
Armbian_24.11.1_Bananapi_noble
Armbian_26.2.0-trunk.342_Bananapi_noble
and the SATA interface doesn't work on any of the three.Does nobody use a BPI M1+ with an Armbian image where the SATA interface works?
-
For your information, I have a
BPI M1
BPI M1+
BPI M3
All three are currently running Ubuntu 16.04, where SATA works, but it's a very old version. All tests with Armbian were performed using the BPI M1+, although SATA did not work. -
Good morning
I have a BPI M1 and M1+ currently running an image from https://banana-pi.org/. Everything works, except it's Ubuntu 16.04. Since yesterday, I've been testing the Armbian images, which are great and up-to-date, but none of them recognize the SATA connection on my SSD.
`
fdisk -l
` shows no SATA SSD.
Since I absolutely need this connection, I'm stuck. What am I doing wrong, or where do I need to activate the SATA connection?
The SATA connection is what makes the BPI M1+ unique.
With Ubuntu 16.04, the SATA connection is recognized with both SSD and HDD on the BPI M3.
Can someone please help me? I'm completely lost.

Thanks.
I'm at a loss too, because it works with this:
I was just hoping someone else might have encountered this problem. Thanks for your help though.
