I have checked and this one indeed is already 512 block size. So i am still clueless.

I’ve seen reports of trashed RDB’s when using the Dayna wifi driver. Was the dayna scsi device on when this happened?
 
Yes i made the hardfile for the Daynaport and i have set up Miami to use the device. It has frozen while looking for DNS, then DH0: trashed. DH1: was trashed already after first boot.

But DH0: had already trashed before a few days ago while i didn't have prepared the Daynaport hardfile yet.
 
Ok, DH0: hardfile trashed again from a fresh copy without Daynaport just after i clicked to save my mouse speed setup in Prefs.

Mmmm!
Seems it is not made for that Amiga, unless there is a magical bluescsi.ini to save the day.
 
Bummer. Try removing the ini file, cdrom stuff and any hdf files not in use. (move them to a folder on the SD card or rename them)

What are your image files named?

Are you using MMUlib or Phase5 CPU libs?

(I had constant RDB crashes on my CS MK3 SCSI with MMUlib, which went away with Phase5 libs.)

You aren’t using 3.1 FFS on a larger than 4G file, are you?

(Edit: I see you used shapeshifter before, it will also trash stuff outside 4GB. Image files <4G work though)
 
ok i will remove the other hardfiles.
I have "HD10_512 DH0.hda" "HD20_512 DH1 to DH4.hda" "HD30_512 Shapeshiter.hda" and "HD40_512 PCTask.hda", the two latter for further use still unpartitionned, NE5.hda and CD6 directory.
I use indeed MMU libs on this setup, will switch back to Phase 5 libs.
No FFS, only SFS for all the Amiga partitions. DH0: is only 1000 MB.

Will check again tonight or tomorrow.
 
In case it helps, i have copied the log file from the last time before DH0: get destroyed and i will then proceed with more tests asu suggested by @fgh

Hello.

Unfortunately, none of the above has worked. Still stuck with either RDB - SD in read only or image files SD which destroys images as soon as something is written on them.

So i am giving up with this device. May be i will be able to use it later in another computer AppleII, Mac, PS DOS or Falcon, but it doesn't seem to pair well with the Amiga.

Here is a picture of that computer. Should have been a nice story of blue case, blue LED, blueSCSI and bluzzard 1260. Instead, i have installed an IDE to m2 SDD as i usually do. This computer is a clone of my other A1200 with Blizzard 1260 except for Amiblaster CP and Freeway USB instead of Subway on a Gayle adapter clockport. The weird thing is that the other one gets 2,5 MB/s from its IDE port and this one only 1,6 MB/s with same combo of upgraded SCSI device, NSDpatch and IDEFix (was 1,2 MB/s and 1,4 MB/s with two different IDE to SD adapter and the RDB SD card that i used also with the BlueSCSI). That computer seems to want slow hard drive access.
