eMMC Storage on Linux

[APTI]

eMMC failure is rare i think.

you think wrong. I get them in shop all the time dying and unable to retrieve anything because they are soldered on. Failure on emmc is higher than ssd or nvme

Oh ok.

But to spend money on something that is disposable that way I just can't bring myself to do it. Linux will work fine on it just don't expect much out of it.

This particular unit has a dead main battery, so the convenience factor for portability is diminished - it has to be plugged in to external power at all times. As a result, I use it almost exclusively for score keeping on family card night. It does run a LibreOffice spreadsheet really nicely. :/

None of my machines are exactly "screamers" but this one can be a bit slower than the others at times. I still run the same desktop on it as I do on my daily driver.

Laptops, netbooks, tablet computers. They are all good with Linux for their prices. Don't think about watching 4K 120FPS videos on it

I'm going to buy that tablet computer because i need a device like this, portable and fanless. I have 2 laptops but, they are so big for full portability. When i go somewhere, it's heavy. I put it on to the table, "puff", it's so heavy. It's powerful but it's not that portable.

Tablet computers is not heavy, fanless. Plug-and-play things. Just connect it to the network and watch some videos and do some little jobs. That's all i want
