Quantity of SATA ports would be great as well. It is far too difficult to find an small ARM board with 4 SATA ports.

  Quality of SATA ports, too. Not so great to find your 4 SATA ports are all hanging off a USB2 bus.

  +1. Another way to solve this would be to put all the data in the coarse search results. That way the author wouldn't have to recode the site every time someone wants a new filter. You could still fit the buy button on the line item. :)

    The best I have found so far is Helios https://kobol.io/helios4/ https://kobol.io/helios4/. Unfortunately I missed the second shipment.

  I have an Espressobin and a 4 port MiniPCIe card, haven't tested it yet because PCIe was super unstable on the board for a while

> Another feature request/suggestion for this site: Quantity of ethernet ports. More than quantity, I'd like to see actual bandwidth, though I'm not sure how to boil it down to one field. I'd like if I could click something to weed out boards that have Gigabit Ethernet and hard drives on the same USB 2.0 bus, like the Raspberry Pi 2. [1] This info seems a little hard to track down, so it'd be handy if someone put it in a nice database like this, especially if there were citations to verify it. It'd also be nice if I could search for a specific CPU/GPU/etc model or chipset (e.g. Cortex-A72 rockchip rk3399), GPU, etc. But I think there aren't so many matches that I can't do this myself on anything that's a possibility. Oh, also DSPs. I think there are some SBCs that have the Hexagon 680, which I've considered as a way of doing some computer vision stuff. The only ones I found were really expensive, though (e.g. the InForce 6640). and/or ISPs (image signal processors). Really, any type of coprocessor or hardware accelerator is worth pointing out...

  One thing to watch out for with the Hexagon on the Snapdragon 820: while there are a bunch of modules from the likes of Inforce that run Linux, not all of the 820 features are supported on Linux, including Hexagon last time I checked. Some features are only supported on Android at this time.
