I like how the Odroid M1S comes not just in its own case, but also with a first-boot installer on its eMMC. That makes getting started a lot easier! This is a very nifty and thrifty (well, if you consider $49 for 4GB or $59 for 8GB to be thrifty, just wanted to rhyme) little SBC and a great review for it too. :)

I'm grateful for all the broadcasts that were actually filmed. There has been a flurry of re-mastering these classics into high resolution digital media. Sadly that which was filmed in the early days of digital recordings still look exactly the same, and can only be 'remastered' by applying the Vaseline smear that is AI to modernize it's pixel count.

@@Reziac "Right, But if you're stuck, the salon car will still get you down the road." No, you're not answering my direct point, you're creating a different scenario - "driving down the road" is not the same scenario as "off-roading a car". Please stay on topic. "I think it's good to stress-test these things with more OS than they can really handle, so we see how they perform while being maxed out." Again, where did I mention "stress testing"? "Expectation of a desktop replacement" is not the same as "testing the suitability for such". There's no point responding to me if you're not going to address my actual points. "Gives a better idea what their realistic limits are than does just using them for the intended purpose." Sure, but if you're an engineer like me who knows what he is doing, you don't "stress test" every single possible platform that might be used for a particular solution - you eliminate most of them before you even get to "stress testing". "Stress testing" is something an expert does, "expecting an SBC to replace a desktop or laptop" is something someone who doesn't know what they are doing does.

Stick with the clones - in my experience which dates back to Pi A and Pi B models the first practical SBCs, I've found the Chinese do it better for less money and now we have developers like the Armbian project providing excellent support for many of them, there's littler reason to bother with our home grown stuff. OK, I'm cheap, but I'm also dirt poor and I've been running some early clones as file servers for years (with DietPI and SAMBA). They're almost bullet proof and run from small 5V, 2A (10W) wall warts without ever breaking sweat. Linux servers are so stable that they can sometimes run even if some idiot pulls the disk (SD card) and often when a drive develops a fault in a non-critical area (that's only used during boot for example). Not that I recommend trying such a stunt, but leave them alone and they're as solid and reliable as a wall socket. And you can forget them almost as easily.

I saw there is a Mini-ITX RISC-V motherboard out there called the Milk V Jupiter. It really is a step in the right direction for RISC-V. I think in a couple of years most budget computers are going to have ARM and RISC-V processors instead of X86 processors.
@LargeDivisor
@LargeDivisor 5 ай бұрын
As much as I love RISC-V, I fear your prediction is only half true. ARM is the only architecture between the two that has enough corporate support to break into the budget PC market. RISC-V may achieve the same, but it is well more than a couple of years away at this point. As it stands, RISC-V is chipping away at the bottom of the microcontroller market which was once occupied by the likes of PIC, and Google is reportedly shipping them at scale in their latest generation of hardware AI/ML accelerators. So there are reasons to be optimistic still. Btw, I got a demo of the Milk-V Jupiter last month at a conference courtesy of the RISC-V team at Red Hat, but it was lacking any graphics acceleration support. I know it has a display accelerator on board, but I'm not sure if it's a case of waiting for the drivers to get merged into the mainline Linux kernel or what. Imo, this class of problem is a big part of what keeps desktop RISC-V from being viable for the masses for the time being.

I really like the complete package approach -- no need to hunt up a case, just plug the thing in and off you go. That power use is low enough to run off a portable power bank, too. I wonder how much more it uses with the NVMe installed? Side thought: one could predict a cottage industry in gutting a dead laptop, install one of these boards, attach it to the existing screen and keyboard, and voila, a complete portable unit. (That's actually how my Asus netbook is designed, it's an SBC in a netbook package.)

Usually it's the kernel modules being developed ongoing. It's likely that they're either not yet compatible with kernel 6, or built into a later kernel - but this would preclude them continuing their own development purposes - note these are usually sold as "development kits" rather than "home use plug and play sbcs". I was using a brand new Rocki4c+ the other day - and for those reasons, unless you buildroot or armbian your own distro, that's limited to kernel 4.4, and its supplied current base distro is Debian 11 This isn't due to lack of low level bad planning, but that the SLTS CIP [Super long term support civilian infrastructure platform]linux kernel is 4.4 - and so many of these target this Super Long Term kernel for multi-system compatibility reasons - at least at their core development end - as that's what the hardware engineers need - *super long* term stability, not just _long_ term, else they get grumpy :)

I wish they'd have no ethernet but Wifi & Bt instead - or at least always release one wired, one wireless... that way those needing PoE are still happy too :) yea yeah - blah blah hand wavy production costs etc :) - but if I can add an off the shelf device at home to add WiFi for a fiver, you manufacturers can stick one on it in the factory for less... i dare yas :))

Hardkernel designs amazing hardware but i am disappointed by the very short software support periods. The Armbian developers are doing great work but the experience doesn't come close to actual vendor support.

I often wonder if the idle power usage is high, because of the single board computer, or because the included power supply is poor quality. Would you mind to add a measurement of just the power supply, with the sbc disconnected?

From an energy usage perspective it would be most useful but the price isn't necessarily that good for the actual performance shown, albeit with the caveat that it is likely targeted at industrial use, where raw power is likely a secondary priority.

When nothing else was available I bought an Odroid C4 with exactly the same issues. Very poor driver support on an older Linux.

The the major issue with many of these Rockchip SBCs is that those chips were originally meant to run Android which means there was little incentive for the chipmaker to write proper drivers to make these chips work well on desktop Linux. It is unlikely the software support for these chips will ever come anywhere close to the likes of Raspberry Pi.

Unfortunately, it cost the same as raspberry pi 5 with 8gb ram after shipping and taxes. Makes me struggling to decide which one to choose.

Where is the speed bottleneck? emmc or cpu? Does the m2 drive make the experience snappier?
@privacyvalued4134
@privacyvalued4134 5 ай бұрын
eMMC is _slow_. It works but is one of the slowest forms of storage. I would say that the LPDDR4 RAM is the second bottleneck. The CPU is the third bottleneck. The lack of a dedicated GPU is the fourth bottleneck. This whole system is loaded down with bottlenecks BUT that is actually a good thing. You buy this type of system for two reasons: Extremely low power consumption and to use it as a back office, always-on system OR for development/test purposes. It's not really intended for use as a daily driver.

a55 was the type of arm cpu you got in 2017 on cheap smartphones, so there is your bottleneck m.2 is nicer but a decent sata ssd will not disapoint you

Would the 8GB Odroid M1S make a difference over the 4GB model? The idea will be to run few container services... The little power consumption makes it a really cost effective candidate for home usage.

Bar AV1 the iGPU (ARM Mali-G52 MP2) has a of full set of decode and encoders, so with the Codec's for those formats and drivers it should run video really well for a entry 2D GPU it is well packed really. (Info found of CPU monkey) it has h264, h265 HEVC (8 bit), h265 / HEVC (10 bit), VP8, VP9, VC-1, AVC and Jpeg, Decode and encode. This would be good for a CCTV system or Media TV streaming system although security low FPS is probably more suited but adding AI via a google Coral card and M.2 adaptor would be strait foreword. Although you would be force to a single chiplet though as I doubt this board will have PCI bifurcation.

It does not have camera connector and that is weird. Also would be nice for these boards to have PoE.
