I need an Android device for archival purposes, it has several requirements and I would appreciate any suggestions. I’ve done some research myself, but I would appreciate it maybe you know of something I haven’t discovered.
Requirements:
- Must fit inside this Faraday pouch, or a different one that is of a similar price, and is both water and fire proof
- Must support an open OS (Degoogled, rooted Android ROM or Linux - both support touch interfaces, Kiwix, and storing and viewing files)
- at least 256GB internal storage to store the files
- at least 8GB RAM for running local AI models, preferably nearer 16GB
- Good battery life, since it will stay inside the pouch most of the time and I don’t want to have to take it out to charge it every day
- As cheap as possible
I have no other requirements, it doesn’t even have to have a camera, let alone a good one.
Thanks for all your help!
If you meant Single Board Computer, that seems like a whole class of devices. What specific model would you recommend?
Just use any cheap one that you can find that runs Linux well. There’s 100s of them I’m sure you’ll find your pick
Are you sure I’ll find one with my memory, storage, and size requirements? And I didn’t specifically list that I wanted a touchscreen and chassis rather than a naked motherboard, but I do indeed want that.
