Hello everyone! I am planning to create a NAS server with RAID5 on my RockPro64. I will probably use Seagate IronWolf for my hdds. But I could not decide on my card yet. I am brand new in this area so I am a little bit confused.
These are the card I am considering but right now:
this
this
this
Any recommendations? I just want to make sure it works before I buy it. I am open the alternatives.
Have a nice day.

Is the USB 3.0 port still an issue for Q64 model A? |

Does anyone know if the comment in the development wiki is still accurate?
From https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/Quartz64_Development :
Confirmed Broken- USB 3.0 (applies to Model A only) — only works with very short cables and depends on the device. This is due to a hardware design issue relating to the coupling capacitors needed for SATA, which shares the same lines as USB 3.0.
- Hardware design changes have been suggested to engineers, it's in their hands now.
I got a Quartz64 model A about a month ago and am now wondering if some issues I've been seeing with my board may be related to the USB 3.0 port.
Thanks

My customer support experience |

My PinePhone64 stopped connecting to my router wi-fi. After several tests I determined that the problem was the phone. I contacted customer service and they asked me to download and run a test program (app). Not easily done with no Internet connection. But I managed. It took several attempts but finally I got a test that reported RTL8723CS had failed. Nevertheless they asked me to repeat the test several times as I had not tested for all the devices. Not really a problem, but it took some extra time. Then they asked me to remove the motherboard and its many tiny screws to ship it to them for replacement. I was concerned I would damage the board. I objected, telling them that I had bought a complete phone not a motherboard and that I would ship them the whole phone (minus battery). They agreed. Shipping from Sweden to Slovakia was expensive. They received it on 27th. July.
It arrived today 15th. August and it works normally. I would call that good customer support. But downloading your test version from “Historic factory builds” on https://wiki.pine64.org/index.php?title=...Download_9 and running it will speed up the process.

Proximity lock on Plasma Mobile |

Hello,
I've been testing Plasma Mobile a few times, and there are quite a few things I do like better than on Phosh, but I always end up considering it unsuitable for serious use as a phone because of one major issue: the screen doesn't turn off or even lock when putting the phone on the ear during a phone call! The screens stays on and your ear can randomly open menus and change settings by touching the screen. I'm really surprised that this still doesn't work, as it's a rather basic and vital feature of any phone UI.
On Phosh, the screen stays on but gets locked and blanked when the proximity sensor is covered. That's not ideal, but usable.
On sxmo and Gnome Mobile, it gets properly turned off.
Is there something I didn't figure out to enable the feature, or is the proximity sensor really not supported by Plasma Mobile?

Hello,
Currently giving sxmo a try, I'm annoyed by the SMS log breaking words in order to fit full lines.
Instead of randomly brok
en words I'd like to hav
e line breaks occuring b
efore or after entire wo
rds...
I redact my messages in the "micro" editor and there I can enable the options "softwrap" and "wordwrap" to get lines to break on spaces only, but I don't know how to configure a similar behaviour for the log. Any idea?

ROCKPro64 Battery Power Supply |

For quite awhile now I’ve been looking for a suitable battery to run this SBC. I’ve seen several posts which helped determine that it can’t be powered by usb-c, or the onboard lithium battery port. I don’t know much about electricity, but there has to be a solution to run the unit without plugging into the wall. My MacBook Air runs & charges off usb-c, and it seems it would need much more power than an SBC. It also seems very inefficient to run an expensive battery bank to go from DC - AC - DC. I’m also not going to carry a 12V car battery around in my backpack.
Has anyone found a solution to battery power the RP64? I will run headless, so no additional accessories are needed (except for onboard or usb Wi-Fi adapter).
Power Input: 12V 3A or 5A type M 5.5mm OD/2.1mm ID barrel type DC Jack Power Supply.

pine64 opensource dumbphone |

I really waaant a pine64 (flip) dumb phone with a very light OS like the one in the pinetime, perhaps with a bit of a better hardware to be able to listen to music but that's it !!
There was another discussion about this but it went full political about something else, so I opening this here
I don't know if you've already thought about it, kaios phones are really not satisfying enough from an open source point of view since most manufacturers don't release sources
dumbphone are really becoming a thing again, lots of us rely on bad dumbphone we can't really hack into
