Move the source-code platform's drive into a proper enclosure
The source-code platform's data drive was running on a bare adapter cable rather than in an enclosure — the drive itself sat exposed, held only by the cable's connector.
What changed
The same drive now sits in a proper enclosure. No data was copied or migrated: the disk moved between adapters and the filesystem came with it, identified by UUID rather than by device name, so nothing had to be rebuilt.
Verified after the move
The link came back at full speed (5 Gbps) with the faster of the two available transfer protocols negotiated, the filesystem mounted with all its content intact, and the platform served normally end to end. Sustained transfer measured about 375 MB/s reading and 300 MB/s writing, matching the previous setup.
The new enclosure was tested with a scratch drive first — link speed, protocol, sustained read and write, data integrity read-back and trim support all checked — before anything touched production data.
Service was stopped cleanly for the swap and the interruption was a few minutes.
