[TriEmbed] Looking for an RPi, but with 8GB RAM

To support 8Gb of RAM, you will need a 64bit ARM processor (A57 or A53 or A72).

The Nvidia Jetson TX1 has such a processor.

The devkit board has 4GB of memory, but the chip supports more.

On the agricultural drone, i'm curious. Why are you needing 8gb of RAM?

I did some Google searching and didn't find a trace of anything ARM based with 8gb. I am interested also if there is such a thing. I am helping someone with an agricultural drone project and one of the requirements is ARM processor and open source software.

 

I attended DARPA Proposal Day several months ago. There was a guy there promoting credit card sized computers that reminded me of RPi and have 8gb RAM, however, they are Intel based. Supposedly they run a full modern OS with your choice of Linux, Windows, or iOS. He also said they use very low power and perform reliably in harsh environments. Oh and they can stack in a brief case if you wish to build portable datacenter.

 

I have thought of buying one just to have as a pc. They run about $1000 each. If anyone has experience with Biodigitalpc products I would be interested in hearing about it.

Hey,

I'm looking for an ARM-based linux computer with a lot of RAM for testing some ideas involving moderately high load servers built into ARM-based gateways. I'd like to find 8GB RAM, but the most I have seen is an ODroid with 2GB. Anyone know of an ARM linux board with that much memory?


According to this database the ARM boards top out at 4gb:
