I thought you talked about that PC you got but from china, saying you didnt want to wait for it to be shipped
@Dietrich your orangepc still needs 12v for the hdd, right?
Yeah, of course. that said for an ARM device the Orange Pi is king, it can power a Raspberry Pi from its USB since it has a superior DC-IN power I actually supply 2A to it if need be.
But if you use a 2TB 2.5" HDD you can power it from the Orange Pi
yes. but that's different as it's one device and not a single component by itself. i'll just send the pc back to their poland warehouse if it doesn't work.
or SSD, similar.
As it has sufficient power over HDD
I need external power because its a big hDD
@Dietrich does it have gpio p9ns?
ah shit you bought better shit than me I see, I didnt know these existed.
And retard proof manuals for setting up a remote server?
This is the thing about Allwinner, since its a tablet SoC
If you get the H3 one in Orange PI PC, it does not have native SATA
You are going to feed it with external controller and USB
Older SoC actually has a native SATA port, some have fake SATA-to-USB so beware
I got a controller holder for my 8bitdo SN30 controller
But those run an even more ancient CPU
for my phone
about remote server
now I can play emulators on my phone with buttons
and its ez, pz, the orange pi runs mainline, go check out sunxi-linux. they even have H:256 support now in the open source video driver.
:^)
no 🤗
Also I didnt consider a product like beelink x45
How much for it
feels solid
tight
oh snap 219 dollars
well I am happy with my 190 USD option
This is a much better deal though
back to the wiha talk
$15.59
I have one of these, recommended.
yeah lol this was great at $25 even
I got it for 18 dollars at Banggood
so any price between 16-20 is all good.
I considered buying two but why tf do I even need one more in my lifetime if its this good quality
