    They’re also cheap, which is a huge benefit.

    But yeah, I haven’t picked up a Pi in quite a while, the only one I still use is an emulator station and media streaming device. I’ve been seriously considering getting a RockPro64 to replace my NAS, which is a fantastic option if you want low power, decent performance, small form factor, and expandable IO (it has a PCIe x4 slot).

      Eh, especially the last few years they were more expensive. Now granted, mine was refurbished, but 40€ is still roughly half what I’d have had to pay for a PI at that time.
