Power supply underpowered for Rockpro64, deficient PCIe SATA card, or something else?

Thank you for chiming in t4_4t.
Incidentally, I just recently found in another thread (https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?...9#pid80999) where someone had success by changing that libata.force parameter to 1.5G, so I tried that (I hope I did it right-- I went into armbian-config and edited the boot envs there). Still no dice-- it keeps failing! Out of curiosity I also dialed it down to 0.5G, and it still failed on me.
Sounds like the dmesg output above indicates to you that the SATA card is unreliable?
Same as you describe with my setup-- reads are no problem at all, but lots of writes and things go haywire. Though I have the ASM1062 version of the card.
