PogoPlug series 4

Postby Raymondday » Wed Dec 14, 2011 11:16 pm

I got a e-mail today that they have a "PogoPlug series 4" Save 40% And Free Shipping so $60.

Looks like it has a SD slot. Take off the top and can plug in a SATA lap top hard drive. It has a USB 2.0 on the top too and 2 USB 3.0 on the side. Gigabit Ethernet.

I guess you can turn on SSH.

Any one know how fast the CPU is and if they put more RAM in this one?

We don't own one yet. Yet. I got one on 50% with free shipping, but more than likely, it will not be oxnas based.

It is not oxnas based. It is a Marvell 88F6192 ARMv5. Not sure about NAND or memory yet. But I have confirmed the SoC from CE.

How did you get 50% off it? Is there a link? I guess you got a better e-mail.

specs are a little disappointing. Was hoping for at least 256MB RAM and at least 1GHz CPU. Still a good deal for $50 if there are performace improvements with USB 3.0. I have my doubts with that CPU.

O I seen this and the first link has 50% off and 2ND link 40% off.

What that's super it says 800 Mhz. But junk still 128 of RAM. The CPU had 256 KB built in. Looks like it's not a 2 core. That is super bad of it. 512 MB would make it so you can use it as a good server.

It be nice if they had a RAM slot in it. So you could add your own RAM.

just a guess, but I think the performance of a single USB Port aren't the "problem" of pogo's transfer rates. You can very (!) hardly reach max USB2.0 speed, why implementing USB3?
