  Performance and stability issues Openmediavault
Posted by: jgpacc - 09-24-2018, 09:26 PM - Forum: General Discussion on ROCK64 - Replies (10)

I have been running a OMV on a HC1, XU4 and now Rock64.  I decided to do performance comparisons.  This then exposed my instability issue with Rock64.  The HC1 gave 110 MB/s write speed.  The XU4 only did 70 MB/s.  The Rock64 might be the star I thought but it only did about 80 MB/s before it crashed.  This now is the problem.

I try coping about 10 GBs from W10 to the Rock64 via ethernet and it fails every time at around 6 GBs. The box crashes and must be power cycled.  There is no message in the OMV log.  Smaller copies work and if I connect my USB 3.0 attached HDD to the USB 2 port the copy works but at 30 MB/s.

I have tried a HDD, a SSD and a M.2 SSD in a M.2 to USB enclosure. All 3 fail approximately the same. Makes me think the load is crashing something.  
One error in the log I see occasionally is something like  Fatal  Watchdog not found.  
I am running OMV 4.1.11  Linux version 4.4.132 on the eMMC.  I have the correct power supply.

Anyone have any ideas on this problems?  What other testing could I do to trap some meaningful error messages? 
Thanks
Joep

  Steam Cache
Posted by: kassiogp - 09-24-2018, 12:56 PM - Forum: Linux on Rock64 - Replies (3)

Sorry about my English. I'm using google translator.
I have a rock64 4GB and HD 2.5 of 500GB (used in usb 3.0).
I made a Server Steam Cache DNS, with Nginx and Debian Stretch, as in the link: https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2017/01/b...-bandwidth -blues/
Expected speeds of 80-90MB, but only achieved 15-18MB, it was disappointing! I think small files copy at lower speeds.
Any suggestions to improve this speed?

Hi,

Can anyone recommend a usb 3 gigabit ethernet adapter that they know works with the Rock64?

I'm looking to build a firewall and thought of the Rock64.

Thanks in advance....

It would be great if the guys in Pine-labs design a little, portable and hackable device like the GPD Pocket

Probably is not as simple as choosing a 6" tft and keyboard, and taking out the huge touchpad  :-D
[Image: gpd-pocket-7.jpg?itok=VXKwnwbC]
For me, a device with this features would be amazing:

  • hd screen < 7"
  • clicking keyboard (forget flat or rubber ones)
  • removable standard battery
  • accesible HDMI, USBs and GPIO
  • speaker
  • some kind of screws, sliding guides or similar, to allow attaching 3dprinted accesories
  • Price =< 99$ !! ;-D
There is a lot of DIY projects of guys building their own portable Raspberry Terminal. All of them are overcomplicated and lack a good keyboard.

What do you think? Would you buy something like this?


  fan info papers in purchase section
Posted by: RockPro64Newbie - 09-23-2018, 08:21 PM - Forum: RockPro64 Hardware and Accessories - No Replies

in the area where you buy components to RockPro64 , the fan , if clicked on shows 3 pics and 4th is a spec page.  Does anyone have a clear view of that page I can access? or email to me?  (altonddavisjr@yahoo.com)

also, just received my unit! (There was a bag of screws) Are they to mount board to the clear base unit?
I want to purchase a few sbc screws on the side.
can anyone give specs on M.2 screw?  also any other screw that may be used in Pine boards?  Threadding, length, size screw.?]]

Humble Thanks!

I am redesigning my clear case. I found a little larger fan with a nice steel cover. I want to assure the power is the same. I have tall heat sync, and pcie boards,
therefore my 2nd layer will accommodate the boards and tall heat sync.  A THIRD top layer will have mounted fan over heat sync providing excellent air flow through the three layer case with no sides.  I will have 2 2.5 wd sataiii ssd drives mounted on 2nd  clear layer as well.  that way it looks killer, and travel will be good.  plus if I can get specs on the gentleman's solar power set up.


  PINE A64 upgrade to 18.04 possible?
Posted by: RandomUser324 - 09-23-2018, 05:59 PM - Forum: Ubuntu - Replies (4)

Currently running Xenial MATE 16.0 and am I trying 'do-release-upgrade' to 18.04 with no success on my Pine A64 (the original).   Wanted to confirm if anyone has done actually done this?     Was following instructions on the web like  (
https://forums.homeseer.com/forum/homese...-04-64-bit )   but then I realize that maybe pine64 and rock64 names are being mixed together.

Can someone confirm that what I'm attempting is indeed possible?

  Disable sdio (no wifi/bt) to fix pcie/nvme support
Posted by: RockPro64Newbie - 09-22-2018, 04:07 PM - Forum: Linux on RockPro64 - No Replies

Disable sdio (no wifi/bt) to fix pcie/nvme support on 4.4 for RockPro64,

hi, I see this still stands according to notes .

I see the fix but that is over my head as a newbie.  Do you have a video of someone going thru the steps S L O W L Y?   I CAN FOLLOW VIDEO.

If there is someone in USA I can call that can walk me through it. (free long distance here) and Canada.

Otherwise, how can I get the wifi and Bluetooth working.  That is a must for me.


Please advise,

Humble Regards,

alton davis

just got machine yesterday!! excited to move forward.
