Hello,

 

I'm using a BananaPi M1 board long time with armbian. Most of the other BananaPi boards are no longer supported with armbian.

Which board will have the best change to armbian lts?

 

I only need a board with 1GB RAM, 2 x USB, 1 x Gigabit Net, SATA for small home server settings.

 

Any hint?

 

That's not up to armbian to decide... If the boardmaker drops a board it might get dropped by armbian earlier.

SATA

be more specific here.. SATA over USB2 (e.g. max ~40mb/s) is sufficient?

price range?

As NAS the Hardkernel Odroid HC-1 (for 2.5") or HC-2 (for 3.5") seems to be for me a good choice at this time

HC-1:

HC-2:

Armbian HC-1/HC-2:

Hi,

 

ok... some more information.

I need SATA just for one system 2.5" hdd/ssd. It is not used for NAS, I've a NAS server already on LAN. The board is connected to WAN and there is a web server (nginex) running, and also ftp/ssh server and vpn (client to my internet server). That's all. It is my outside connection to my LAN.

Perhaps Odroid HC1 / HC2. For me, HC1 works as a mini general purpose server.

Odroid HC1 seems to be a good solution for me and makes a good impression.

Thanks for the hints!

If you finally decide on HC1, make sure you are up-to-date after the purchase....
