Any idea why my FireWire 800 OWC drive sometimes disconnects and reconnects? Happens only at night.pic.twitter.com/AEOroP5K8K

@adamengst Let us know if you figure it out. I've seen lots of problems like that with USB 3, though not FireWire. http://mjtsai.com/blog/2014/06/18/rocketstor-drive-dock-more-expensive-but-reliable/ …

@mjtsai Did your drives remount after dismounting? That’s what I find weird - it would make more sense if they stayed dismounted.

@adamengst Yes, the drives remounted right away. It's as if they were unplugged and then plugged back in. -
@mjtsai That sounds exactly like what I’m seeing. Did yours ever happen while you were watching? Mine are all at night. - View other replies

@adamengst@mjtsai Did Console logs have any clues? - View other replies

@DanFrakes@mjtsai No clues so far, but I need to look carefully the next time it happens. - Show more

@mdeatherage@mjtsai Given that it’s the only FireWire device on the bus, I’d think not. It is bus powered, through the Thunderbolt display. -

@mdeatherage@mjtsai Yep, on a UPS, so I’d be very surprised if it were mains power-related.
