ODroid H2

An x86 SBC from ODroid - https://www.hardkernel.com/shop/odroid-h2/



Sold out in 24 hours, so a bit of a wait until they make more.

Why is this interesting? Well, one wonders how well it will do running Roon Server. Here's a CPU comparison compared to Roon's NUC recommendation for "ROCK For Small to Medium Sized Libraries":

Are you going to order one?  I'd be very interested in what you think!

Well, I'm on the notification list at ameridroid (put yourself on it, you could win one!), but I read on the Odroid forum that the holdup is that Intel is not making the processor chips for a while (!).

Available again. Ameridroid probably have stock in a couple of weeks.
