FWIW: Now you can get raw PCI-E access with the Compute Module [0] + IO Board [1], allowing you to put a SSD on there over a robust interface.
But yeah, I would also love this to be built in on something like the RPI. Closest option according to my research is probably the Rock Pi, but then it's not really straight forward to boot from it etc...

- throwaway894345 6y agoI know relatively little about the Compute Modules... Are there any decent "racks" for these that would allow you to assemble many of them into a single unit?
- MayeulC 6y agoWell, at least Pine64 makes one. I have no idea if those are pin-compatible with Pi compute module, though. https://www.pine64.org/clusterboard/ https://www.pine64.org/clusterboard/ It's a bit sad the Pi foundation dropped the DDR form factor, though, it was a good idea IMO. For this, they could have gone with an EOMA68 form-factor, that would have been awesome: https://www.crowdsupply.com/eoma68/micro-desktop https://www.crowdsupply.com/eoma68/micro-desktop
