Of course if there is a quad core 64-bit ARM with sata under $100 that runs at 5V; that would do nicely!(....)
How many of the above requirements are not available. My first approximation is <$100 and 5V. We all know there are quad 64bit ARMs out there with sata!
If I am not mistaken odroid fits these bills but its uboot and kernel are NOT mainstreamed, AFAIK. Hence not easy to use with CentOS.
And another question I have on the arm_64 stuff:
Can I move the uboot mSD card and sata drive from one board to another? This is one of the important development things I like with the 32bit. I can develop build on my desk with a test board, then move it all into production in my rack systems.
EFI kind of killed this with Fedora. If my notebook dies (e.g. fan), I cannot just pull the drive and put it into an identical (Lenovo x120e) notebook. Though my next unit will probably be an x141e...
