[SUCCESS] Gigabyte Designare Z390 (Thunderbolt 3) + i7-9700K + AMD RX 580

[Inqnuam]

I just bought a thunderbolt cable and test it on my hack with my MBP.
On hack:
View attachment 473884View attachment 473880
On MBP:
View attachment 473885View attachment 473882
Once again @CaseySJ, thank you and to all those who participate on this forum!

congratulations

just to know, why we can't all use the same Thunderbolt DROM?

Thunderbolt DROM contains a Unique ID (UID) in bytes 2-9. This UID prevents conflicts under at least these circumstances:

• If another Thunderbolt controller is installed in the same computer, each should have a different UID.
• If we use Thunderbolt Ethernet Bridge to connect two Macs using a Thunderbolt cable (see @StefanAM's post above) then each computer should have a different Thunderbolt UID.
• We don't know what else can fail in the future if there's a UID conflict.

Hey guys, trying to figure out when exactly the USB stops working on my 10.15.4 build. Is there a log of events somewhere within the system? Also the drive I’m using is an Inland 1TB M.2. Thanks!

Perhaps you can try something like this in Terminal:

log show --last boot | grep -E "HIDDriver|HIDDevice"

To see a live view of this (as logs are being generated), type:

log show --last boot | grep -E "HIDDriver|HIDDevice" | tail -f

Press CTRL-C to stop the live view. In live view, the output will be empty until something gets logged.

@snoby maybe you have problem with a cable or cables, if you have some other cables try by changing them, also check if they are correctly and fully inserted to the Pi pins, have a look to the Pi pins too

As soon as I turn on power to the power supply for the MB I am unable to read the chip

why are you not using Bios F9g or h beta version? with this version CF-Lock is disabled by default

I agree -- it's best to download and install Firmware version F9h. Click here and choose the file shown:

Then configure BIOS parameters again, starting with Load Optimized Defaults. MSR 0xE2 is already unlocked with this version.

After this, if you encounter any issues, just let us know.

By the way, where is your full bootable backup? Didn't make one? Do you see why we keep asking everyone to make a bootable backup...

I suppose you found the issue. For me reads and writes were consistent when the power supply to the motherboard was completely detached (including no Thunderbolt device connected to the TB port). Give it a Few minutes after you disconnect the power supply and Then read.
