Tangential thought... adding a script for making scaffolding/templating for a new board would be cool. (board def, folders etc). I suppose it could help assure the proposed structure as well. I'll admit i haven't looked at the code base in a bit, so my apologies if there's already something in place that does that.

It’s a great board. What do you use yours for? I use mine as a Docker cluster with hashistack Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

And they're literally in stock on ali Express right now Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

Hopefully their switch is connected via SGMII Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

They had them briefly recently. Im bummed they're out of primes now Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

The H5 has been growing on me. Container builds have been noticably faster on my opi PC2 than my opi plus 2E boards. I just added a prime to my nomad farm consequently Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

I was shocked with how pleased i was with my le potato. It Ended up being a much better kick starter gamble than espressobin. I have a h5 tritium pledge that should come soon. The libre folks seem to have a few things going for them: * they have real capital to pay hardware and software engineers * they've embraced the rpi form factor as a standard * minimalist designs to control complexity * coherent communication Naturally i wish they used gig Ethernet, but i understand their design philosphy and just have a use case that isnt network heavy. Ive got orange pis for that. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

Frustrated yes, but also a positive step forward. Sometimes the FUD for stuff like this scares organizations to patch. I've been trying to get the blessing to do bulk patching for 2 years and finally my company is ready to do it!.

Ethernet Patch definitely made my potato solid. I'm running fresh image now, with consul, nomad, docker and Jira running in a container.. def much faster than on my Opi2e. Thanks for the patches!

Iperf's UDP defaults are low bandwidth and I think focused on latency. You can explicitly set a desired bitrate for UDP with a parameter. Try that and see if things are better. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

Documentation Pull Requests are welcome.... https://github.com/armbian/documentation Have you had any issues with having to clean out your loopback devices?

All really great points, Zador. Honestly it was meant to be a bit tongue-in-cheek, but I tend view all the non-raspberry development boards as something for more advanced users. The Raspberry eco-system is just hard to beat for newer users. I recognize the price is a important consideration for new people as well, which is probably how many start off with allwinner-based stuff

Save your words. Just give them this link Orange PI FAQ

Don't lose hope.. I asked Steven Zhao on Ali in late sept. His response: steven zhao 17/09/24 20:19 Yes, we are purchasing the materials for Plus2E now, it will be on stock next month

Although it does look like GPIO at a glance, It's actually usb-based SATA. The NAS board connects to some additional USB ports the orange pi zero has broken out in a separate pin header. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
