There is not enough power, I can't even install windows 10 with USB stick + Logitech dongle inserted in those ports without my keyboard and mouse disconnecting I probably gonna sell my Bolt v8, only thing they told me why you not using usb-c ports in the back. It is very strange my phone can do SSD / mechanic hard drive without issue.
I do not have problems with the front USB ports, and I have an Intenso Memory Drive 500GB on it which is a mechanical disk drive.
been over 2 years when I had the chance I should have return it before that I was hoping for bio update maybe fixed it
