PunkThis, ARM MicroComputer


The vast majority of us will have a free SATA port on a PC. If you are on a laptop, that might be something more complicated, but also viable. Why do I ask this? Because Android could you have a computer within your current team.

PunkThis is the name of a computer ARM is integrated into a SATA 2.5-inch bay. That is, it occupies the same as a hard drive of that size and includes an ARM processor 1 GHz (Texas Instruments OMAP DM3730), 512 MB ​​of RAM, WiFi, a couple of USB and a mini PCIe slot as standard connection for external storage. So, here is a small video of the strange device.



One of the main advantages is that PunkThis is a computer that can be used in desktop or laptop, without distinction, provided they have a free SATA port (for example, removing an optical disk drive). Its price is about $ 200 and it sounds very interesting, not as a mass device if not very specific for certain users who like to touch the innards of their machines.
