Hello everyone! where i can get the Information if it’s possible to power up/down the USB-ports seperately?
I' m not sure if the information under the storage section at http://wiki.pine64.org/index.php/ROCK64_Main_Page :
I’m looking forward to buy this board and use it as kind of all-in-one-device (router, wifi ac with USB wifi dongle,
kodi 4k video player, pi-hole-like ad-filter and something like a NAS. For this reason i need to know if i can power
an external USB 2.0 or 3.0 harddrive on demand only for example for a scheduled backup-task. Afterwards i wish to cut the power thus the hard drive don’t has to run all the time unlike the board itself (which should run 24/7). Also it would nice to know which commands are used to enable USB Powering ON/OFF for each USB-port
My 2nd question: Is the rock64 media board fully supported with CEC controls using Linux Distributions?
Thanks in advance
