[SOLVED] Fastest Write speed Single Board Computer?

[jcmatoskx]

I am looking for a small/portable device (Linux or Windows) that will need to have at least 4 USB ports 3.0 (ideally, even if its through a usb hub/extender) and has the fastest write speeds possible (Probably hooked to an SSD?)
Essentially the intention is for this to be a small portable server for multiple HD cameras, so I need to transfer (be able to write) a lot of data quickly and at the same time from the 4 usbs.
Thank you in advance for the attention and advice!

I saw some like the raspberry 4, ODROID n2 or c4 (c4 looks better because its smaller and cheaper, but Im not sure if transfer/write speeds are different between them) or something like nvidia jetson. But to be fair, I still don't know if there is a big write speed difference between these, or if maybe I should just be searching for the 4 usb hubs + having a good SSD hooked on to the SBC.

Thank you in advance for the attention and advice!

No matter what storage media you use you will be limited by the USB port speed, which is MUCH slower than any drive.

Thank you for your input! I understand, it makes total sense I believe this is why I will have to opt for SBCs with usb 3.0

You should start with "Let's measure": Get a good desktop, with good SSD, and connect your HD camera. Measure how much disk bandwidth you need for one camera, then repeat for two. You'll have the baseline for the field equipment.
