      Do you mean this:
      0ec31ae3-0963-4411-af1d-f168f0b562c1-image.png

      Ok right after this I get a bunch of these, must be at least 50 lines, probably more:
      0ad3a75b-cbdf-42de-ac33-ed509c044f52-image.png

      Then this:
      9a226c6a-fd03-41be-b99f-695414d242f0-image.png

      Do these tell you anything?

        Yeah, that error is in reading the USB drive, not the eMMC.

        But if it reports 8 devices after it shows it erased the eMMC that's almost certainly an eMMC issue.

          I'm sorry I don't know what to look for exactly. I took a screen capture of the console output because once it restarts the log is gone. But I cannot post a video here I think. Could I send it to your personal account?

          Here is another part of that output that I was lucky to freeze as it flashy by extremely fast. Any clues here?

          Then the bad MBR sector warnings keep rolling and rolling and then this is the next output that appears:

            No the number of detected devices is show very early in the boot just after it finishes erasing the eMMC after you run usbrecovcery:

            Marvell>> run usbrecovery

mmc1(part 0) is current device

            If, after erasing the eMMC, it still shows 8 disks there that's a problem.

              Thank you for your sample output. The point is I don't get the same lines as you provide.

              After the MMC erase, you get:
              starting USB...
              I get:
              resetting USB...

              Then this part is the same:

              Starting the controller
USB XHCI 1.00
USB1:   USB EHCI 1.00
scanning bus 0 for devices... 2 USB Device(s) found
scanning bus 1 for devices... 1 USB Device(s) found
       scanning usb for storage devices... 1 Storage Device(s) found

              And then your output reads

              reading efi/boot/bootaa64.efi

              I don't see that at all. Instead, I get:
              ebd81205-d55f-443b-939f-1f3ed4e44bf8-image.png

              Then you get:

              ## Starting EFI application at 05000000 ...
Card did not respond to voltage select!
mmc_init: -95, time 41
Scanning disk sdhci@d8000.blk...
bad MBR sector signature 0x0000
Scanning disk usb_mass_storage.lun0...
Found 5 disks

              What I see is:
              bf9815ec-6340-4326-82b6-954b434d2d63-image.png

              Then after tens of "bad MBR sector signature 0x0000" it just proceeds directly to
              cb02420c-08e0-430c-a030-37ffcfffdeb6-image.png

              And it never gets to "Found 5 disks". Or any different number of disks. The entire line is not there.

                I tried flashing the firmware 3 more times with different USB thumb drives. Eventually the third one passed right through until the end and appears normal. Above output is from that third try.

                But the device still gets very hot, much hotter than my other SG-1100, which is running my network now, including pfBlocker IP and DNSBL blocklists.

                I tried to read the eMMC health by following these Netgate instructions but it doesn't provide the

                eMMC Life Time Estimation A [EXT_CSD_DEVICE_LIFE_TIME_EST_TYP_A]: 0x01

                information. Instead I get:

                Can you make anything out of that? Or is this eMMC not supported?

                    Yes I saw most of that when doing a screen recording, which is the only way for me to see what's flashing by because it goes too fast.

                    But my output stops at

                    Control to turn the Cache ON/OFF [CACHE_CTRL]: 0x00

                    ...so it does not show:

                    eMMC Firmware Version: 09111317
eMMC Life Time Estimation A [EXT_CSD_DEVICE_LIFE_TIME_EST_TYP_A]: 0x02
eMMC Life Time Estimation B [EXT_CSD_DEVICE_LIFE_TIME_EST_TYP_B]: 0x04
eMMC Pre EOL information [EXT_CSD_PRE_EOL_INFO]: 0x01

                    I notice you have the output in text. Is there an output file I can open?

                    Thanks,

                      The output simply doesn't contain the Life Time Estimation info.

                        I just connected to it using SSH and copy and pasted it here. You can also scroll back through it and read exactly what is shown.

                        You can also copy/paste out of putty (or any terminal emulator) if you're uisng the console directly. Putty can also be set to log all output to a file directly if needed.

                          Okay I haven’t tried SSH. But I’m on macOS, not windows. So I use terminal and it won’t let me select all + copy the entire output, just the last screen.

                          Bottom line is I don’t get the eMMC health output
                          And I’m still puzzled why my usbrecovery output is so much different from what you showed, not 5 or 8 devices etc.
                          And the heat and power draw also bothers me from a reliability point of view.

                          Would you think, based on all of the information and output I provided above, that this unit is okay, or otherwise?

                            Mmm, try SSH. The fact you are seeing unexpected output seems suspicious. You might not be seeing everything or it might getting overwritten.

                              Connected via SSH now. Exact same output, so no health est info, but now I can indeed copy/paste all output which is progress.

                              Suspicious is not just the lack of eMMC health info, but also the other missing output during usb recovery.

                              I can’t re-flash the firmware using SSH. All I could try is find a windows machine somewhere at a friends office to compare putty output. Maybe tomorrow, it’s 2:30 am.

                              In my head I have written off this unit, from the high power usage and the extreme heat it produces alone. The reason I am still trying to estimate if the eMMC is bad, is that this circumstance might explain some or all of the issues I’ve been having with it. And by such conclusion may restore my confidence in netgate.

                              Maybe you could bear with me a little longer and help me troubleshoot the output issues so as to determine if this unit is good or bad. That would really help.

                                I installed a "putty - equivalent" for macOS, the "Serial.app". Provides good output, can scroll back, copy, paste, etc. Here is the eMMC output, though it lacks the same essential parts as before:

                                  I can certainly try. That is odd that it doesn't show all the output from mmcuntils. Though there have been several different eMMC chips used.
                                  What does yours report for the MMC version at the top?

                                  Extended CSD rev 1.8 (MMC 5.1)

                                    Oh cross posted. Yes you have an early version with the MMC 4.5 chip. That doesn't report lifetime data.
