817 Storage connected to a USB 3 PCIe card (or Tango combo card) gives an macOS error message upon wake from sleep.May-12-20
To minimize power usage during sleep, power is removed from PCIe cards. Because of this power-saving specification, a USB 3 PCIe card is unable to maintain USB port power during sleep. In macOS, this result in a storage device disconnect upon wake from sleep. The storage device will automatically remount, but the system reports a disconnect message. Because macOS flushes all caches before sleeping, this disconnect should never result in any loss of data.

1099 What makes Sonnet USB 3.2 Cards more reliable than other USB 3 cards?Apr-02-22
The uniqueness of Sonnet USB 3.2 products is each USB port has a USB power switch (MOSFET) that manages and monitors the current flow of the USB port. The USB switch limits the current draw when a new USB device is connected minimizing the voltage droop of the main USB 5V power rail, thereby protecting devices connected to other USB ports from going offline because of port power droop. The USB switch is also a very effective current limiter that does not degrade over trips the way a resettable poly-fuse would.
