I came across this while looking for a pure RAM USB stick to use as swap on my Raspberry Pi. I didn't find such a beast, unfortunately. I'm also considering sharing some sort of ramdisk via iSCSI from another machine.
- mschuster91 11y agoWhy? The USB bus on the Pi is dead crowded with the NIC, you will suffer from latency issues. Often enough I ask myself why the network chip couldn't be interfaced with MII like any common cellphone SoC does with WiFi and why the USB host pins of the CPU are not routed through to the MicroUSB connector :/
- akeck 11y agoYeah, it would slow. ;-) Just for kicks, I was trying to figure out a way to break 1GB, beyond using zram swap. I also have an old 256MB Model B that could be more useful with a little more memory.
