I need to test if an Asmedia ASM3242 controller is working correctly at 20 (twenty) gigabit.
I do not trust my devices or cables.
Does anyone have known good devices or cables that actually run at 20 gigabit?
i.e show in USBTreeView or lsusb -tv with a link speed of 20 gigabit.
Get USB 3.2 nvme enclosure for a gen 4 nvme ssd like a wdsn850 or samsung 980 pro or some known solid ssd and if your really feeling up to the cost you can get a tb4 enclosure. I have a few from orico that work well.
Get one of these cables
Have fun. I have tons of these in various lengths laying around. In the end you will have made yourself an external ssd so if you want to combine the test with making a decent sized external ssd you could
Are USB4 cables guaranteed to work at 20gbit?
Does this look anywhere near right?
I’m getting the same behaviour on two machines: one with an integrated ASM3242 and one with a PCIe card.
lsusb -t shows the controller at 20 gigabit, but the device only comes up at 5 gigabit. Tried two different cables.
If I switch to a 10 gigabit port ( ASM3124?) it works at 10 gigabit.

Success, finally.
A Silverstone MS12 enclosure, (https://www.silverstonetek.com/en/product/info/storage/MS12/)
Whatever NVMe drive I could find that was capable of 20 gigabit for a few minutes
The weird thing is I think USB Device Tree Viewer is giving me the incorrect information
Asmedia’s factory tool gives us the goods,
Note that if I plug it into a 10 gig port, it says “x1”
If anyone has a 20 gigabit port available on Linux, please test for me. I was only able to get 5 gigabit speeds.
Windows itself is useless.
If you’re in Australia, I can post you a PCIe card and a cable.
I have the same enclosure and it works on 20Gb on Linux. I’m using the port on my Asus proart x670e. The front port on my case also works, but it is a bit unreliable (possibly due to the cable of the case). The rear port is flawless.

Thanks. Which kernel are you on?
I‘m on Fedora with 6.7.5, it has been working like this since about half a year with whatever was the current kernel in fedora back then.
