    Two days test passed. No more Error 0x800701B1 issue.I consider it fixed. Current Win10 is incompatible with Marvell disk controller chip. Previous Win10 state (dated Feb 2021 or before) is fine.

    I had the same problem with a USB drive. ejected the drive and plugged it into a port at the back of the tower and now it works fine.

    My problem was with a secondary hard drive controller with a Marvell chip.  I swapped out the controller and my problems disappeared.  I'm not sure what you can do with a USB drive, but the issue is probably tied to the controller and not the drive itself.

    I had the error when using an internal HDD for an system back-up . The problem disappeared after I had run : chkdsk/r D:  (D: is the partition where I place the back-up.)
