I don't remember if I saw any that has real SATA, (i.e. not an on-board usb/sata). There ought to be some... Be careful to choose one that also has native Gbps ethernet, and not on-board usb/eth chip. The on-boar usb/something designs are often multiplexed on a single usb port, so that the bandwith is shared between all devices, that will kill your performance. There is a lot of information about those topics on the Armbian site & forum, see [1] > Important is that the SBC support UBUNTU / UBUNTU-like > O.S. There is an ubuntu flavored armbian, have a look there: [1] https://www.armbian.com/ -- Vincent Legoll -- coreboot mailing list: coreboot@coreboot.org https://mail.coreboot.org/mailman/listinfo/coreboot
