Re: [orca-list] Some small linux device



Hello,

yes, my friend from Czech Republic told me about Raspberry Pi, but he warned me, I alone without seeing person cannot option it alone. And I don't know where can I buy it in the czech Republic, who can help me with optioning and what is Raspberry Pi. I know, it is like Lego (smile). I can build it, but I am afraid I can break it.

If you want, write me privatelly, but I believe, Raspberry Pi interests other people and Pinebooks of course too. so it's your choice how do you write me.

Thanks.

Best regards

Vojta.

The Raspberry Pi 4 is good, and you can get it with 2GB, 4GB or 8GB of RAM. Those are probably the easiest to find and the least expensive as well. The OS is normally put onto a MicroSD, but there is also a way to make it boot from USB, which can sometimes be faster, depending on the boot device.


I have an older Pinebook, and they definitely at that time could have used improvement. I think the newer versions may have made those improvements, but I'm not sure, as I didn't try one yet. There is supposed to be a Pinebook Pro, which is supposed to offer a much better experience. The main advantage to these is that they are laptop computers complete with the keyboard and the screen. There are no separate parts, no cables, etc.


As for plugin devices, the Odroid N2 is certainly one of the best. This is what I'm using to write this message. It is a little larger than a Raspberry Pi, and it only ships with either 2GB or 4GB of RAM. But it has a 6-core processor, 4 large and 2 small, and the OS runs from an eMMC chip, which is closer to the size of 4 MicroSD's, 2 side-by-side with two more stacked on top of them. The speed advantage is significant, though the price is also noticeably higher. The biggest advantage is that although all of these machines are passively cooled, the N2 doesn't even seem to get warm to the touch, no matter how much load I put on it.


These are some of the best small and fairly cool fanless Linux devices I know and/or have used. Hope this helps.
