Armbian 5.1.y and storage/network potential issues
#1
Hi,

I'm looking at purchasing a Pine H64 and using Armbian for a project that mostly requires network (around 128kb/s up and 128kb/s down) and storage (90% append-only write).  However, I'm concerned about the following at https://www.armbian.com/pine-h64/ :

--- CUT ---
- USB3 sometimes doesn’t detect high-speed devices properly
- random MAC
- limited 3rd party hardware support
--- CUT ---

For the network, I'd like to use the integrated wifi, but need a fixed MAC (for port-forwarding).

For storage, I'm looking at using a Toshiba HDTB410XK3AA Canvio Basics 1TB connected directly via USB3.  Does anyone know if this might be an issue (e.g. power and/or compatibility-wise)?

I still haven't decided about SD/eMMC for boot/root (but would like to use u-boot).

Does anyone know if the issues mentioned above have been resolved?

Regards,
sysop
