==FAQ==
'''Q0: <span style="color:red">What to do if you find the SSD is not recognize?'''</span>

A:
1. Please confirm that you use the SSD with right interface which match with the socket of your expansion shield. (Not recommend to use SAMSUNG SSD, as there will be big EMC interference.)

2. If use WiFi, please try to close WIFI to test.

3. Please use the right mSata interface SSD to X857.

4. Please try provide extra power to X857.

5. '''Please test and make sure your Raspberry Pi4 USB3 port is good one.''' (We get the feedback that Pi 4 USB3 port is easy to broken)

If still any issue, please email us at '''support@geekworm.com''' and provide the follow information:
* 1. Your order number.
* 2. The SSD model you use.
* 3. Photos about all the hardware connection.
* 4. Run the command " lsusb" and show us the result.


Q1: Does the X857 support USB boot?

A: Please refer to [[Does the X825/X855 support USB boot]]

USB boot video for reference:

Q2: What msata SSD is recommend?

A: It is '''not recommend use Samsung brand SSD''' as there will be electromagnetic interference between the Samsung SSD and X857 which make the SSD can not be recognized, and you can choose other big brand that you like.


Q3: Does X857 support TRIM?

A: Only X857 V1.0 supports TRIM (Thanks for Mark), It will ensure the longevity and performance of mSATA drives.(The important thing is a rule has to be created to tell the OS this and then a cron entry made to schedule it.)

More detail refer to: https://www.glump.net/howto/desktop/enable-trim-on-an-external-ssd-on-linux


Q4: Does X857 support UASP?

A: X857 V1.0 supports TRIM but not UASP, X857 V2.0 supports UASP but not TRIM.
