I have a RTL9210 based NVME to USB adapter and would like to request for this chip to be supported by Smartmontools. I googled around but did not find any prior discussion about this particular adapter type. Here is output from my adapter with an NVME drive installed: {{{ # sudo smartctl -x -d scsi /dev/disk/by-id/usb-Samsung_SSD_960_EVO_250G_012345678905-0\:0 smartctl 7.1 2019-12-30 r5022 [x86_64-linux-5.4.0-3-amd64] (local build) Copyright (C) 2002-19, Bruce Allen, Christian Franke, www.smartmontools.org === START OF INFORMATION SECTION === Vendor: Samsung Product: SSD 960 EVO 250G Revision: CXE7 Compliance: SPC-4 User Capacity: 250,059,350,016 bytes [250 GB] Logical block size: 512 bytes Physical block size: 8388608 bytes Lowest aligned LBA: 10016 LU is fully provisioned [LBPRZ=1] Rotation Rate: Solid State Device Logical Unit id: 0x3001237923792379 Serial number: 0000000000000000 Device type: disk Local Time is: Sun Apr 5 21:01:15 2020 PDT SMART support is: Available - device has SMART capability.

Let me know if you want full lsusb -vv output. Orico has two models with this chip; the PFM2-C3 and the M2PG-C3. Pluaggable has switched their USBC-NVME from using the JMicron JMS583 to the RTL9210. JEYI makes the i9 GTR and and another where I'm not sure what the model number is. And finally there's a ton of cheapo no-name Chinese brand adapters on the market. If there is anything I can do to help make this happen, please ask! ",enhancement,closed,minor,Release 7.2,all,7.1,fixed,nvme usb,
