“very little difference to the 8gb aside from being £20 cheaper; the GUI (OS) operates no slower in terms of human perception and whilst I am sure it will have lowered capabilities in some areas, it is perfectly fine as a multi-purpose, always on, 'server'.
If I were to run Batocera/Recalbox etc for retro gaming I would always use the 8gb version (and have tested with some noticeable differences when running Dreamcast games for example) but other than that, I see few reasons to use the 8gb version over this unless you know you will need to.
And superb/fast service from the PiHut team as ever.”
“There are so many things that you can do with this tiny credit card sized computer. You can literally use it as an everyday light use PC, or block ads on your Wi-Fi network, or make a cluster ‘supercomputer’, or use it to make a smart home, or use it as your home NAS, or use the many online projects, do all of the above on this tiny computer. It punches well above its weight and with a vibrant online community, you need this computer in your life!”
“A great little device to display stats for my home network! Slotted into a 3D printed case and stuck to the back of a monitor where it runs a set of Grafana dashboards with minimal power usage. Now i can see when internet usage peaks, firewall stats, system temperatures and various sensor data.
The Pi Hut always ships devices quickly and is well packaged with recyclable materials, never had a problem with anything I've ordered.
5 Stars for the product and the company!”
“What an awesome bit of kit. Ordered with a PSU, OneNineDesign case and an SD card with RaspOS pre-installed, all I needed to do was hook up an external USB drive with all my home media files, install Plex on the Pi from the web, and was up and running with a new home media server in no time, and on a ridiculously low budget. Awesome! Arrived next day which was a bonus surprise - great job pi-hut :)”
