The Rock64 looks good, but I will wait until I get the feedback from you guys.Īnd for the time being I think I will try to install Fedora 27 64bit on my RPi3 and see if it will do the job. Then I saw helios4 with real 4x SATA 3.0 and decided to wait I even saw some Chinese laptops with similar specs around that price range (actually a bit more ~$270), and I thought why not have one as my NC server, the laptop battery will act as a UPS in case of a power failure and it will always have a keyboard and screen ready whenever you need to fix something. I started looking at the x86_64 mini PCs (with Celeron Processors like J3455, N3450 N4200 and ~4GB ram) with prices ranging from $150~$250 but most of them state a maximum limitation of 2TB for the attached drive!!! I am not sure why is that!
The docker run command is used to run a container from an image. Docker Container: A Container is the running instance of an image. Docker Image: It’s a template containing instructions to create containers. (And this is the case with many SBC, so don’t be fooled by seeing a sata port on the board, check the CPU specs and see if it does support sata or not) First, you will need to install Docker.For demonstration purposes, we will use the pre-built official image of Ruby and macOS. Thank you all for contributing to this thread, I have learned about many new boards specially helios4 which looks like the best NAS solution for me.Ĭurrently I run Nextcloud on Rpi3 (raspian), and I also own Banana Pi M3 which has good specs but:ġ- It is only 32bit (so no big files for me, which is very annoying)Ģ- Supported Kernel is old, and I had to do a lot of workarounds to get the latest nextcloud working on it (and that made me not trust it to be reliable and secure)ģ- The SATA port is not a real sata, it is through USB2 to SATA chip so it is exactly like connecting and external drive to one of the USB ports.
