  Should we Raid Rock64?
Posted by: S265 - 04-02-2018, 11:17 PM - Forum: General Discussion on ROCK64 - Replies (3)

Hi guys, can we run Raid 0 on the Rock64? My current set up is Openmediavault running on the Rock64 with a usb3 -> Sata 111 cable and a 2.5" Seagate
2 TB expansion drive. I am not sure if the Seagate Expansion Drive is known for its reliability, but the price was right. Now I am wondering about the possibility of duplicating the drive and creating a Raid 0 system to help ensure data security.

Does anyone run multiple hard drives on the rock? Do you have a raid system?
Speed of throughput is not essential as I don't have massive amounts of data, but some data integrity and security would be nice.

  Disappointed by KODI announcement[April Fools / Joke!]
Posted by: Jakr - 04-01-2018, 11:17 AM - Forum: General Discussion on ROCK64 - Replies (4)

I just read that the kodi folks announced that.. Not only are they going back to the name XBMC (they mention their disappointment with Google taking kodi from autocomplete as a reason)... But that also... They, going forward, only going to develop for/support xbox one.

So, going from 6 platforms supported, to one (they actually talked about how much of their resources were being devoted to Android support ... Considering Android's... Fractured.. Many version's out there problem, understandable)...

But dropping everyone but xbox one,.. Well, sucks.

  Slow SMB transfers when sharing encrypted USB drive - is my CPU the bottleneck?
Posted by: oealias - 03-31-2018, 09:50 AM - Forum: General Discussion on ROCK64 - Replies (3)

Hi, so I have a USB drive im sharing through Samba.  The drive is encrypted with bitlocker and im using dislocker to decrypt it.  This problem does not occur with bitlocker disabled.

When I test file operations, speeds start at what I expect (~30 MB/s) but quickly drop down to ~3 MB/s.  

I was looking for some guidance on interpreting the result of htop.  This is what it looks like when this is happening:  

https://i.imgur.com/hFpfDpc.jpg

Two main questions around this -   

1.  According to the overview up top, im only using around half the total CPU capacity of my device.  
2.  Breaking it down by core, it looks like the 4th core is getting the most usage, at around ~85%.  But it's still not maxing it out, and how come that number isn't reflected up top?  


Based on this, can it be determined that the CPU load from dislocker is the bottleneck here?  When im not using it, SMB goes fine.


  Technical query regarding SoPine 64 SOM Pin-out.
Posted by: Madhuwesly - 03-30-2018, 09:57 PM - Forum: Pine A64 Hardware, Accessories and POT - Replies (2)

Hello,

Good day!

I am Madhuwesly, working on a SoPine 64 SOM based Development board. Could you please clarify my following doubts which I came across while developing schematics:

Problem:

We encountered with few differences between the provided SOPINE-A64 connector pin assignments sheet - (http://files.pine64.org/doc/SOPINE-A64/S...er-1.0.pdf) and reference schematics of baseboard and SoPine-A64 SOM - (http://files.pine64.org/doc/SOPINE-A64/S...er-0.9.pdf
http://files.pine64.org/doc/SOPINE-A64/S...170207.pdf).

Query 1: Could you please tell me which one I have to consider as correct one for the SoPine-A64 SOM shown in the pine64 website home page?

Query 2: Could you please let me know how can I get the reference documents for your latest SoPine-A64 SOM ?

Awaiting your reply.

  Boots, but won't recognize keyboard
Posted by: davidgs - 03-30-2018, 02:06 PM - Forum: Getting Started - Replies (4)

I have one of the original Pine64 boards that works perfectly -- even with this keyboard, just as background.

I just received 2 brand new Pine-64 LTS boards and have 2 problems:

1) Can't boot the same image as the older board and I can't find a way to 'convert' the image to be able to use it. So I burned a new card.
2) New card boots just fine. I get a 'pine64so login: ' prompt. But it does not recognize the keyboard input.

It's admittedly a Mac Keyboard, but the same keyboard works with the older Pine64. 

It's currently booted via battery since I didn't realize there was no more USB power in, and I neglected to order the 5v power supplies. 

Thanks!
