Magnets Posted December 11, 2018 Posted December 11, 2018 I have an orange pi PC that I use as a simple NAS (NFS, smb, iscsi) and for openVPN occasionally but want something new with GbE. What is the best upgrade that will give me 2 or more usb ports, GbE and a faster processor? With decent software support ()? I don't need HDMI or wifi but it would be a plus 512MB-1GB RAM opi zero plus? opi PC 2? Around $20 shipped ideally 1

I don't need HDMI or wifi but it would be a plus 512MB-1GB RAM Around $20 shipped ideally Not for $20 shipped, but with the -for me - cheap NAS case the NanoPi Neo2 LTS is a option. The Neo2 is available with 512MB or 1GB of Ram and works fine inside the NAS-Case (I got 2 of these combinations running over a year). armbian-support for the Neo2 (H5-CPU) is fine. HDMI isnt included, but with the NAS-case he has 2 USB 2.0-Ports, GBE, a power-switch AND a proper Power-connector for a normal 12V power-supply Neo2 LTS:https://www.friendlyarm.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=69&product_id=180NAS-case:https://www.friendlyarm.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=85&product_id=222 2
