Unknown USB bridge [0x04e8:0x6124 (0x200)]

[devhellaux]

This is a Samsung 3TB D3 Station external USB 3.0 hard drive enclosure (but uses a Seagate drive). Only works with '-d sat'.

The output is as follows without '-d sat':

# smartctl -a /dev/sdf

Please specify device type with the -d option.

With '-d sat' the output is:
