Perfect. That could be #1 choice for the job! Thanks for the tip.

Raspberry CM5 has ECC RAM. There are boards for CM5 with SATA ports like this: https://geekworm.com/products/x1509

I'd like a Raspberry Pico sized board with it.

Original article here. Consider this when replying. This year, I had the great privilege of receiving the FreeBSD Foundation travel grant to attend BSDCan. The conference informally kicked off with the traditional gathering at the Father & Sons bar near the 90U residence on Tuesday. The first...

Do you have RTC? I tried a dozen different things to a systemd timer and it'd either not run or run immediately on boot regardless of time. Meanwhile time and cron are easy FreeBSD :D

Deciding which OS to run on a computer is to me an important choice. I evaluate the options carefully, and then stick to them. For my personal desktop/laptop/GUI machines I have been running the same OS since 2008, and since 2010 the same choice was used for my work laptop. For my server at...

Turns out that my device system date and time were not in sync after the fresh install. I enabled ntpd and ntpdate in rc.conf and started these services. Then attempted pkg update, and it worked without errors. ntpdate_enable="YES" ntpd_enable="YES"

Haven't tested it, but I have this in a update script: rsync -a --no-times --checksum --checksum-choice=sha1 '/boot/loader.efi' '/boot/efi/EFI/BOOT/bootaa64.efi'

Is there a way to upgrade the boot loader on an arm64 device (Raspberry Pi 3 Model B)? % uname -a FreeBSD raspberry 15.1-RELEASE-p1 FreeBSD 15.1-RELEASE-p1 releng/15.1-n283582-0f691888dc56 GENERIC arm64 % sysctl machdep.bootmethod sysctl: unknown oid 'machdep.bootmethod'

I recommend you attempt to experience FreeBSD from a serial terminal. You will realise that colors and special escape characters make the experience much, much worse for new and experienced users. The use of serial in the casual consumer space is growing due to things like Raspberry Pi, etc...

One other solution - that I have been using having just got back from spending several weeks on the French Riviera - is to run a personal (free and open source for Linux - with an additional GUI for Windows) tailscale daemon (set as an "exit node") on a Raspberry Pi (2B so not a particularly...

I have been shopping tracked vehicle kits.. The ELEGOO Conqueror Robot Tank looks nice but I got to Step 18 here and the motors are junky. No encoders. Only two wire. https://www.makerguides.com/building-elegoo-conqueror-tank-robot/ Cheap kit so you can only expect so much. To make this robotic...

I find that the usual server renting places are usually blocked by geo-enforcing websites. Amazon EC2 Frankfurt for example is useless for those purposes.

Tor can kind of be used like a free VPN service. Just set up machine's firewall with it as a transparent proxy. Perhaps you can adapt some of the guide here. Otherwise, rent a cheap private server on some cloud platform (azure, ibm, amazon). You can perhaps get down as low as £5 if you do...

I have a 10TB HDD formatted UFS on USB SATA to a RPi4 with 16.0-CURRENT doing fine, and before that it was on USB to a Pro/CAD ATI FireGL laptop (same HDD was fine years single-partition ext4 Linux and NTFS Windows). USB's more consistent from the RPi :D (I got random UAS errors on Rensas USB 3.0)

I've never build a NAS so take what I say below with a grain of salt. FreeBSD and ZFS is indeed a good choice for this usecase from what I've read. I think ZFS needs ECC memory (or it's better to have) so you may need a motherboard and memory that both support ECC. If you need hardware video...

Small NAS case with Intel N100 inside - https://aliexpress.com/item/1005011838208405.html - with 2 x 12TB disks in ZFS mirror you have everything You need. When it comes to software - Sylve or XigmaNAS as xVault seem quite inactive sine some time ... or just plain FreeBSD - this is what I use...

Hey, I have never been into "storage". My understanding of it is basically there are mechanical spinning disk drive and some based on memory chips (faster and more expensive, especially now). And that ZFS is awesome. I am now feeling the need for a NAS for the first time in decades but I have...

This user is using Blender on the Raspberry, but yeah, it can be used only for basic modelling, because nearly all the work is delegated to the CPU instead of the GPU. The user says that the Raspberry GPU does not even support OpenCL in a good/full way. So for any serious scientific work, or...
