USB2 speed when using Top USB3 port with a SATA SSD in a USB3 enclosure with UASP

[adr3nal1n27]

*UPDATED - The issue is the powered USB3 hub which is actually NOT USB3 as advertised and is instead USB2. Sorry to have wasted your time*

 

Hi,

 

I have a 1TB SATA SSD in a USB3 enclosure (that supports UASP) connected to a USB3 powered hub, which in turn connects to the Top USB3 port of an Orange Pi 5 4GB.  Armbian (Debian Bookworm) is installed and running from a 128GB NVME drive plugged into the M2 slot of the Orange Pi 5. 

 

If I do an "lsusb -t" I get the output shown below. The SSD is Bus 02, Port 3, Dev 5 and is using the uas driver but is showing USB2 speed of 480M rather than USB3 speed of 5000M.

 

I have also tried plugging the powered USB3 hub with SATA SSD USB3 enclosure plugged into the USB C data port but I have the same limitation.

 

I have plugged the SATA SSD USB3 enclosure into my intel file server running Debian Bookworm and it uses the uas driver at 5000M with no issues. 

 

Am I doing something wrong? Do I need to disable the USB C port or dual hdmi display output for this to work? (I only use the HDMI port for video output) and have nothing connected to the USB C data port.

 

Thanks in advance for any help and guidance on this.

Issue is not with Armbian but with USB enclosure
