Folks: I bought a NVMe drive, which I installed in an external holder with a USB cable. Plugged it into my computer. In lsblk, it showed up as /dev/sdc.
$ file /dev/sdc /dev/sdc: block special (8/32) $ sudo fdisk /dev/sdc Welcome to fdisk (util-linux 2.38.1). Changes will remain in memory only, until you decide to write them. Be careful before using the write command. fdisk: cannot open /dev/sdc: No such file or directory Am I missing something? For what reason would I be unable to access this drive? And what's the fix? This is Debian 12, if it matters. Paul -- Paul M. Foster Personal Blog: http://noferblatz.com Company Site: http://quillandmouse.com Software Projects: https://gitlab.com/paulmfoster
