I have a Creative Zen Vision M that has a ZIF Drive (so it's described on the Internet). It seems that iPods and competitors like the Creative Zen Vision M had a disk drive falling into the general category of ZIF. About a year ago, the device stopped working (wouldn't start).
However, when I plugged it in to recharge, the drive was definitely spinning. Youtube has enough videos describing how to disassemble the device, and Amazon has caddies for the drive so that you can plug it into a USB port.
I got one of the caddies, placed the drive into it, connected the cable, and the drive can be seen when doing lsusb. But its not mountable given whatever instructions I have been able to find. I do get the following descriptions when I issue #> smartctl -i -d scsi -T permissive /dev/sdc
It's being recognized. What do the journal logs show from when you plugged it in?
This is what journalctl -f reports when it's plugged in: Feb 06 17:39:44 pegasus kernel: scsi 6:0:0:0: Direct-Access HTC42603 0G5CE00 PQ: 0 ANSI: 0 Feb 06 17:39:44 pegasus kernel: sd 6:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg1 type 0 Feb 06 17:39:44 pegasus kernel: sd 6:0:0:0: [sdb] 58605120 512-byte logical blocks: (30.0 GB/27.9 GiB) Feb 06 17:39:44 pegasus kernel: sd 6:0:0:0: [sdb] Write Protect is off Feb 06 17:39:44 pegasus kernel: sd 6:0:0:0: [sdb] Mode Sense: 03 00 00 00 Feb 06 17:39:44 pegasus kernel: sd 6:0:0:0: [sdb] No Caching mode page found Feb 06 17:39:44 pegasus kernel: sd 6:0:0:0: [sdb] Assuming drive cache: write through Feb 06 17:39:44 pegasus kernel: sd 6:0:0:0: [sdb] Attached SCSI disk Feb 06 17:39:44 pegasus Thunar[2003]: thunar-volman: Unknown block device type "disk".
I assume this was a different time than before. You had sdc before and this is sdb.
No, I had a USB flashdrive on /dev/sdb when I first reported this. The ZIF drive showed up on /dev/sdc.
What do "fdisk -l /dev/sdb" and "file -s /dev/sdb" give you? (Replace block device name as necessary.)
