Because the staff is still cleaning and testing...

Here's a topdown shot at my FriendlyElec NanoPi R6s. It hosts: Bitcoin, Lightning, Jellyfin, Home Assistant, TVHeadend, Audiobookshelf and so much more.

There is a microSDXC with 1TB and roughly 130/90 Mbit read/write in the front that holds my Blockchain data and IPFS repo. Another 64GB microSD in the side holds my dinit and other configs while the internal 32GB eMMC has my swapfile and OS on it.

Its my everything homeserver and I highly recommend it!

Nice! Do you have any concerns over the longevity/lastability of the micro sd with the amount of writing it will be doing?

I expect ~2 years. By then I will have better hardware and relegate the R6s to a new task.

Thats the plan, anyway...

That's awesome! I've had my node running off an sd card but with all the actual blockchain data stored on ssd, been meaning to swop the card out for a while now, hopefully before it goes bad at some point!

To be honest, after so many years of experience with a big bunch of different #RaspberryPi models, I can tell out of experience that the #microSD card topic is way overrated in the #SingleBoardComputer community.

In my experience, you either get a bad card & it breaks within 2 weeks or you get a high quality one & it runs for many years. Some are still running great after 5 years.

That is very reassuring to hear! One never knows which concerns are overblown without that direct experience

Couple of weeks ago, I set up Jellyfin on a dedicated Raspberry Pi 4x4 & it is super laggy via LAN, only.

It's pretty much just as laggy, when I run the server on the literal client machine & access it via localhost.

Not sure, why this is happening to me.
