Hi!
I am novice in linux and I would like to make a NAS server for my home network.
What is the best OS for doing that. Lubuntu, Ubuntu Mate, Debian, Android? Ok, i put Android here just for joke...
I heard something about Openmediavault but there is no imager for OpiPC yet?

Nope.

USB with current crappy 3.4.39 kernel not so good, with mainline kernel superiour: http://forum.armbian.com/index.php/topic/504-quick-review-of-orange-pi-pc/#entry3244

Since you think about choosing a device with just 100 Mbit/sec Ethernet all this stuff does not apply to you: http://linux-sunxi.org/Sunxi_devices_as_NAS (in other words: Unless Steven prodives a new H3 model that doesn't suck more or less -- no internal USB hub please , no crappy USB-to-SATA bridge please, but GBit Ethernet) every H3 based Orange Pi is a really bad choice. Choose any of the A20 based models. They're way faster/superiour. If you live in the US this is currently the SBC of choice for a NAS: http://www.amazon.com/pcDuino-pcDuino3-Nano-Lite/dp/B00ZEPZGQO (GBit Ethernet and SATA!)

I have noticed that car insurance organizations know the cars which are at risk of accidents and various risks. Additionally, these people know what type of cars are susceptible to higher risk as well as the higher risk they have got the higher the premium price. Understanding the basic basics with car insurance will assist you to choose the right style of insurance policy that may take care of your needs in case you happen to be involved in any accident. Appreciate your sharing your ideas with your blog.        patrickstash
