   Ah, so. gotit.   
      
   I've had a hdd fail.  'All of a sudden' as they say, it wasn't there   
   anymore.  A combination of conditions, including its age and abundance   
   of other devices, caused me to decide not to investigate it. But I   
   continued to use the device, disconnecting the power/data to the hdd and   
   employing the USB slots for live linux distro/s.   
      
   Now I'm still using it w/ a SSD more than I did the USBs for Ventoy live   
   (and persistent live) linux.
