[smartmontools-support] ASMedia ASM1051 USB bridge

[jafa <ja...@si...>]

Hi guys,

I have a few BYTECC model T-200U3 USB 3.0 hard drive docking stations...

The smartmontools USB supported page has the chip listed as supported
but smartctl reports:
smartctl --all /dev/sde -d ata
"Smartctl: Device Read Identity Failed: Invalid argument"

Chipset:
Inside it has a ASMedia ASM1051 controller and a small E2/flash memory IC.

lsusb:
ID 174c:55aa ASMedia Technology Inc.

Smartmontools version:
SVN as of today (4/10/2011)

Smartmontools USB supported page:
ASMedia ASM1051 is listed under USB id 0x174c:0x5106 with the option "-d
ata".

Is the ASMedia chip known to smartmontools?
If not, I will attempt to get a datasheet.
