Having a small cluster of these is very fun as a homelab, esp. when combined with 5 port switches from TP-Link and others. I prefer to merge them to a one powerful server, because I already have more than enough servers at the office, and want to keep a minimalist home as much as possible. If the MIMO Wi-Fi chipset works as promised, I'll only attach a single disk and power to this thing, and tuck it away somewhere. What's nice is, Rockchip systems have "heartbeat" LEDs on them, so I'll be able to see whether it's running or not with a single glance.
