Long boot and few sec Desktop freezes, after switching External USB (SSD) from 3.0 Port to 3.1 Cable (USB-C Connector)

Hello,
I had no system updates in the last few days or even had messed with my files and the only thing that i do, was to change my USB Connection was my USB Drive where Linux is installed.

On my first day after switching the cable to the faster USB 3.1 C-Connector, i saw in the journal a EA Read error message on my Samsung SSD T5 External USB Drive, where my Linux is installed, but the system was running fine and i just rebooted my Linux to get sure everything is working and the errors are gone and my system was running 48hours without any issues at all and in this time my Linux was running quick and fast like never befor.

But today after a cold system start, Manjaro’s boottime was around 1min till i saw my mousepointer and another min till my desktop was visible, after everything load up the desktop (my normal boottime is maybe 15-20sec) is working now but when i try to check for errors in terminal with journal it took 2min to execute and my desktop was freezing for 30sec. Anways my two commands don’t show any error.

I also looked into KDE Partition Manager and the smart properties are fine. Is there any other programm or diskcheck where i can scann my device or files or look for bad sectors?

Any help are welcome, thanks in advance.

Just because it is possible to install to an USB device does not mean it is a good idea and running Manjaro off a removable device is generally unsupported.

It could be anything - but most likely it is the quality of your cable or a flaw in your hardware.

You could also try a desktop which is not undergoing the rapid changes KDE is undergoing as it could easily be something internal for KDE.

Can you recommend any programm to check the data integrity under Linux?

The Cable from my Samsung T5 Drive looks really High Quality but yeah its possible there is something wrong with it or maybe its the USB C Port Connector from my Mainboard? Because i never used it befor.

But its strange that my Linux is working and running stable if there is a Hardware problem…

Edit: I don’t think it has anything to do with the KDE Desktop per se, because i had any updates in the last seven days.

No - not really - run fsck on the unmounted device.

It can be all kinds of issues - but slow boot times - is often caused by the filesystem being dirty - as in no clean shutdown.

Running of an USB device requires all kinds of precautions to keep the filesystem clean.

I booted in windows because i think the cable was a little bid lose and not really plugged into USB C Port and after i reboot in Manjaro it was loading quick inside this time but when i looked for errors “sudo journalctl -p 3 -xb” this comes up:

Today i switched back to my other usb 3.0 cable and the errors are gone…

Maybe there is some dust on the 3.1 Port or the cable is broken or something like that.

Its just strange because my External USB (SSD) Drive is new and the 3.1 cable was unused and looked very expensive.

Anyways thanks for the help guys.

Thanks for accepting linux-aarhus 's answer.

The only thing to keep an eye on is:

140 times out of

193 your HD lost power, but let’s hope that’s gone with the new cable now.
