How to check if my power supply is underperforming?
#1
Hey guys, I'm having this issue with my external hard drive disconnecting and I'm suspecting my power supply is underperforming.

It's not the official power supply, it's a generic one I found on a store nerby. Except from this suspicion regarding the external HDD, it never showed any sign of problem.

In the Raspberry Pi there's the lightning symbol that shows the undervoltage situation, what about the Rock64? Is there any log or diagnostic tool to track and see if the power supply is underperforming, or if the USB 3 port is not outputing 5V?
Thanks.
