I assume the Pi is a 4 and mine although having a Sata drive connected via a
USB link is still slow on a 3B+ but do want to set it up with mbse as a back
up system for Elist processing using the primary bbs as the only uplink.
That way if I have to stop (Health etc) I can pass the kit on to who ever
takes
the ELIST service on with minimum changes.
Thanks for the information and the same to all others who replied.
I do not thing I will go with it as it is expensive compared to mbse and I am
well retired and Mr. Wallet says no :(
Even more so with power supplies increasing at 200 - 300 % and still climbing.
