$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Raymondday', 'I')t that the only change in the PogoPlug Business the RAM 128 to 2 times 256 ?

To bad they did not put 512 in it.


Why would a company quadruple their memory cost on a device when their software runs in and was designed for less than 128M? Pogoplug designed their plugs for their use, not ours. We just found ways to make better use of their hardware.

I guessing it cost them like $5 more to add 2 times the ram. So just add the cost to the user. I am sure a lot more would buy it knowing it had more RAM.

Or just put a slot in it so the user can plug in there own stick of RAM.

I thinking if can just see if can hack more RAM in the Pogoplug pro. It has a fast ARM CPU and 2 cores. The 128 slow it way down to be like a nice server. It be nice if they put a 2ND SATA port in it too.

The PLX Oxnas 7820 only has 1 port in the SoC so it would be pointless. And remember, this outside the intended use, so...

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('WarheadsSE', '1')) Replacing the NAND w/ RAM is a bad idea.

There is a serial port, just no taps. It's the 4 pins by the power input. J11

We're working on it, as we've stated on Twitter, G+, etc etc etc.


Has anybody connect a serial console to the PP 4? I'd appreciate any advise as I'm going to have to unbrick mine :) I already got the CP2102 serial converter ready to use.

Or 1/3 of that price online! Still way overpriced.
