Hi,

I'm thinking of getting this NVMe SSD:

Looks like a great SSD for the price, but I'm not sure about it because of the Hardware Encryption and drivers.

Driver: Intel® Rapid Storage Technology (Intel® RST) drivers
System BIOS that supports UEFI 2.3.1

Any recommendations if this is not going to work?

As you can tell, the new forum is up; you can read about it and the functionality here.
To the best of our knowledge the update went smoothly and everything works.

If you experience any issues or find something broken, please report it here. Thanks!

[edit] due to feedback we've gotten we'll be trying implementing a couple improvements in the next few days - the forum will stay up, but you can expect to experience broken icons etc.,

What is the polarity of the Rock64Pro power connector?

HI there,

I have the NAS case with the RP64. I installed the latest MrFixit image on it and managed to install/setup:
- samba (to have a network drive) 
- Rsync (to backup the network drive)
- remove pulseaudio to avoid random freeze as it's currently an unresolved issue)

- install Kodi to have a media center (to read the video / music / photos I save on the HDD)

the issue is with Kodi as when I run it I get random freeze (where nothing is working anymore (no ssh, no network access, image on screen is frozen). The freeze has the same behavior as the issue caused by pulseaudio.

Would anyone have a working kodi (other than the specific distro available)?

What has kodi in common with pulse audio? this issue might be linked with the pulse audio issue somehow and I would like to resolve it if possible.

Thanks for anyone reading / helping!

Hi everyone,

First post here
I'm thinking of getting the RockPRO64 with the NAS case to migrate an existing rpi backup server. I could not find the specs for the case, but I was wondering which heatsink might work the best for that case? any recommendations?

thanks!

There are a number of test pads located on both the front and back sides of the motherboard.

Unfortunately, there are no silkscreen labels for most of them.

Are there any resources for the test pads?

Hi guys,

Just a simple question: on my 14" pinebook (which is used daily using the excellent linux support, even layouting magazines using scribus) the keyboard is stopping functioning. '1' 'Backspace' and the right shift key don't register anymore. What should I do now? Are new keyboards available, should i wait for the  pro model to arrive ? I wouldn't mind opening the box, it has been opened before (i.e. replacing to emmc with a 64Gb one)

Any suggestions will be apriciated and sorry for any spelling mistakes as a non native speaker...
