Or $35 RPi4 in 2020 which might even raise your hard-disk transfer rate
well above the current USB2 theoretical max of 60 MBytes/sec -- just don't
count on SATA or NMVe
Hi, Adam
As you know this is an area where we agree to disagree. Currently the
schoolserver's valid, useful content exceeds 500GB. I really do not want
to get into the game of deciding what is worthwhile and what is not. It
is clear that the planned expansion of OSM will require increased

Thanks Tony.
Another option is to buy a $19.99 128MB 100 MByte/sec microSD @

The 400GB, 512GB and 1GB cards are completely excessive & irrelevant for
impoverished nations especially
Hi, Gerhard
The trick is to separate the server software from the content. Install
the basic IIAB on a smaller SD card (e.g. 16GB). Then mount the 128GB
usb drive (mount /dev/sdb1 /media/usb0 for example). IIAB expects the
content to be in /library. This should be possible by a symbolic link
