Moving to OrangePi Zero 3, what are my storage options?
  • Quick question about the hubs. I saw some with 5+ ports. Using USB 2.0 I know I'll have some limitations on speed, but could I for instance, plug 5 HDDs and this speed would be evenly divided among then (given a moment where they all would get written at the same time)? If only 1 HDD is being written, would it get this full speed? Is this math that simple or are there more things that I'm not considering?

  • No reason, really. Just had in my mind that this was the way to get the most storage, but then someone mentioned about a single HDD with 20TB of capacity and idk, this haven't even crossed my mind. Might need to update myself on current HDDs 😅 Thanks for the tip!

  • It wasn't exactly a well-thought choice 😂 I wanted to host my services locally so I had to choose between going for an old computer/NUC or a Raspberry Pi and chose the latter because it's not that power hungry. But then Raspberries are very hard to come by and even with the launch of RP5, they still look like very overpriced. So looking for alternatives, I came by the OrangePi, which sounded like a fair option 😅

    Hi everyone! I recently moved my services from a Hetzner VPS to an OrangePi Zero 3 and I was wondering what options do I have storage-wise? How could I plug the most HDDs possible on this thing? Does anyone have a successful setup that might want to share?
