SouthernStar Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 Over the last 12 months, i've had external drives and flash drives drop out! Flash drives seem to be more prone to dropping out, always put this down to sh@tty hardware The flash drives on a usb2 port seem to have no issues, but who wants to run a usb3 device on usb2 port? Now recently i have heard b450 motherboards have had issues with usb3 ports! i upgraded to the latest msi b450 bios, which is supposed to fix compatibility for usb devices, they should be selling snake oils.....lol I've also used software, such as DriveCleanup, - removes non present drives from the device tree I may have to live with the fact USB3 sucks on a msi tomohawk max b450 , but hopefully some was has a fix Stay safe ppl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This way the devices & drivers are more correctly started. Both together are strongly recommended! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
