How can I tell whether an HDD enclosure is USB 3.0 or 3.2 gen 2? - usb

I bought an HDD enclosure. The Amazon description says that it is USB 3.2 Gen 2 to SATA III. The enclosed manual says it is USB 3.0 to SATA III. How can I tell which it really is? I have access to USBView (Windows 10) but I'm not sure what I am looking for. My NAS has linux so I can try it there, too.

Yes they are backwards compatible see Here >>
Slightly unrelated to programming however...

Can the MX51 support usb 3.0?

I have a device that is run by a MX51 cpu what I would like to know are:
what steps to take to replace an sd slot with mini usb 3.0 thumb drives? This means physically remove the hardware and install a usb 3.0 port in place of the SD slot.
What drivers would i need to install into the OS on the device?
What else do i need to know hardware men?
Look at the http://www.freescale.com/webapp/sps/site/prod_summary.jsp?code=i.MX515 from the block diagram click on Block pic. You can see this only support USB2.0

"Unidentified USB Device" on Win CE 6.0

Quite a while I am struggling with a problem regarding the installation of certain USB device driver in Windows CE 6.0.
The device is some kind of Digital and Analog IO device that connects to the USB port.
It is the LabJack U3.
I followed all instruction and put the driver (labjackusb.dll) and coresponding registry entries into the Windows CE image but the device is not detected correctly.
On every boot up a small Message box came up with the Title "Unidentified USB Device"
and the message "Enter the name of the driver for this USB device:"
Whatever name I put into it want work. I tried the name of the dll. Some title in from the registry and so on but never succedes.
The driver does not work nor the device.
The customer support can not help me so I am asking here somebody to help me at least
with a steps to follow to try to find a solution.
Why the OS does not matches the USB device with the corresponding driver?
I checked everything one million times and everything is in place.
There are a load of reasons this might fail. First:
Is the driver definitely a Windows CE driver?
Is it built for CE 6.0 (not 5.0 or something else)?
Is it built for the same processor architecture you have?
The way to really debug this is to hook up KITL, put in a debug version of device.exe and see what the device managet is actually doing when you plug in the device. A way better and way more reliable mechanism than just trying to guess.

CE 5.0 with 3G Usb Stick

I'm new to CE programming and I have a Marvel device PXA270 with Windows CE 5.0 installed. The device has one usb port.
I wonder if there's ANYTHING I can try to connect a 3G-HDSPA usb stick to it. When plugged it only recognises its folders as a pendrive would do, but no Internet.
Thx.
Forget it. To make it work you need OS support for it or a dedicated infrastructure that the cellular modem should provide for Windows CE 5.
To have cellular support you need Cellcore included in the OS and Windows CE 5 does not support it.
What you can do is start develop your own infrastructure for the device, but it will take you several months of work and that is if you have the Cellcore code from Windows CE 6 as a reference.
The short answer is that you must have a Windows CE driver for the device. Obviously it's a composite device that enumerates as a storage device and also whatever the radio is. Windows CE understands the storage device part and therefore loads up the driver for that. It has no idea what the radio is.
You would have to either get a driver from the OEM (they probably don't have one, though it's always worth checking) or write your own (you probably don't have enough info on the radio chipset to be able to do that).
