There is a lot that can cause thunderbolt bus resets, and cables are certainly one of them.

These buses are incredibly fast and it does not take much to create communication issues.

The biggest problem with Thunderbolt cabling is the "feature" that powers off the drives as soon as a cable disconnect is detected, which exasperates this issue.]]></content:encoded>

We have quite a few Pegasus RAID's at the studio, and have had some very strange issues with them. We've found that the thunderbolt connectors are not to spec, and the official Apple cables are the worst fits. We use cheap aftermarket cables to stop RAID's from hanging systems, randomly disconnecting, and causing data corruption.]]></content:encoded>

(if you have a spare TB cable, try replacing it)

I do not have a sure fire way to fix this for you. I have seen this issue in house, but now that my Samsing blades "stabilized", there are no longer any issues with the M2/4 enclosure with these blades in it.

Perhaps it was a second certify that did it, it may have been re-installing the blades, I just don't know. We would be happy to give you more information if we could.

The enclosure is just a pass-through, pretty basic. I don't think that is triggering these issues. Especially when the main reports I hear are only on Samsung blades, rarely on any other. (Although I confess this could easily be either sample size, or the fact that far more users purchase Samsung blades than any other brands.)

One problem enclosure I was supporting turned out to be a defective blade. It took a second or third certify to figure that out.]]></content:encoded>
