Anyone using a Samsung T7 external SSD with FreeBSD current?

However, the SSD is supposedly a USB 3.2 gen 2 device with a ~1000 MBps
read/write speed.
When plugged into a USB 3.x port, I typically see
ugen0.2: <vendor 0x0507 product 0x0204> at usbus0
and the device is not listed with usbconfig. Repeatedly, unplugging the
ssd and re-plugging it into the USB 3.x port, I eventually get the
above dmesg output. Do I need a quirk for this SSD to get
recognized? Also,
shouldn't it connect with faster transfer rate than 'da0: 40.0MB/s'?
40MB/s exactly means the device connected to USB2 controller or at
least at USB2 speed. Considering that other times it does not connect
at all, I wonder if some signal quality issue or something else
prevents it from going proper USB3. IIRC USB3 uses completely
different wires in the connector. Also USB2 and USB3 can be handled
by different controllers with different drivers, so not detecting it
still might be a software issue, but I can't say much about that area.
Thanks for confirming my suspension.
I've tried two different cables. I have few more I can test.
Unfortunately, I have to use a short USB 3.x extension cable
as the port is on the motherboard under a table.
Climbing under the table and plugging directly into the motherboard
gives
usb_msc_auto_quirk: UQ_MSC_NO_GETMAXLUN set for USB mass storage device

which is what I expected. So, the extension cable seems to be
an issue.
