Cayin N6ii, Unlimited Possibilities: a fully modularized smart DAP
Apr 18, 2021 at 12:19 PM Post #5,792 of 8,192
Will Cayin N6ii work with a 1 TB ssd as OTG ? for me the first time it worked , then from the next time - the ssd just lights on and then off , The SSD works great with my pc and phone too
Any help !!
It works fine with my Samsung T5 1TB Gen 2 whenever I've used the two together which isn't that often because the N6ii battery life was a bit short.

Do you know the current requirement of your SSD when using OTG? N6ii can only deliver 300mA from the OTC connection, anything require more than 300mA will become unreliable.

Umm idk really 😅 ,it's an Kingston 1tb A2000 nvme ssd in an asus arion enclosure , the thing is - it did detect first showed a usb drive and then when I click on it gone 😶 and after that whenever I try to get it hooked through usb c to c cable , it lights on the asus arion RGB lights on but the ssd doesn't work.🥺
Please help
Edit : found the power consumption for SSD- 0032W Idle / .08W Avg / 1.7W (MAX) Read / 4.5W (MAX) Write
And for the enclosure it's 5v I think that's the only info they mention on their site
Update : it just works now 🤣 , changed the usb device configuration from transfer files to usb charging and now it works 😍
Update - not working again 😑
Update - working again , I think it's unreliable for some reason , btw I am on the latest firmware and using T01 module

Its probably the current demand exceeding 300ma as @Andykong said. The T5 uses < 2W when active but that is writing, reading data power consumption is probably a bit less.

A teaser from Cayin. What could this be? :thinking:

A new motherboard, or a new DAP with a similar motherboard design?

That's one thing it couldn't be. There isn't even enough room to fit a single-ended tube design in the space available let alone a balanced tube design.
Oh... OK...my bad...

Hi can you help me with motherboard sound tuning?
I saw there are many MB, A01. A02, T01, E01, E02, there are a comparison?
I own Shanling M8 and i'm curious to know if someone compared them...
