>I wanted to replace my old trusty 'router' (with an attached HDD)--that was not working as a router, but as a network drive after flashing OpenWRT onto it--I wanter to replace it with an SBC+HDD combo. This new device should not only preserve all the services the old one provided (samba, git, rsyncd, a dnf repo), but also perform faster, for having a potato instead of a CPU, the ex-router struggled with rsync over ssh &, being gravely RAM limited, choked when I did 'git push' commits containing binaries > 15MB.
