Thanks for the pointer.  I used to use "palimpsest" for this kind of

may be a suitable substitute.

Unfortunately, it doesn't see the disk either when plugged into the USB3 
card.

        Can someone recommend a working USB3 PCI or PCIe card?  [Was Re: Why does Debian not recognize my USB3 disk drive?] Rick Thomas <rbthomas@pobox.com> - 2015-08-31 09:00 +0200
