I?m having problems with the two USB3 ports at the back, and I have the
non-legacy BIOS version 4.8.0.1.

Are USB devices working as expected for you?

The only time I use an USB device is when I install or perform firmware 
upgrades (not very often). I did experience some trouble with GPT during 
installation of 11.0/11.1 if I remember correctly and I had to use the 
"lowest" usb port for the install USB disk to get booted correctly (my
memory is fuzzy on the details however).


I remember reading somewhere that PC Engines recommends running the 
"legacy" version of the firmware if the OS is FreeBSD/PFSense etc. 
Perhaps worth a try to "upgrade" to the legacy series of firmware?


Kind regards,


Ruben
