The competitor is the Orange Pi 5 Plus, also has 2x 2.5GB Ethernet, same SoC, more USBports, no integrated WiFi+BT (optional M.2 module), eMMC connector, M.2 NVMe socket (up to 2280).
I have one, and Armbian has an official release for it and works quite well with a Kioxia 512GB NVMe.
But at this moment I’m just saying there are similar boards out there, and the 5 Plus might be slightly cheaper (no wireless though). Radxa also has a similar board based on same SoC but only has one GbE port and price might be similar to the Banana Pi.
I’m confused about protecting backups from ransomware. Online, people say that backups are the most critical aspect to recovering from a ransomware attack....
If your backups are visible from the targeted systems, you are doing it wrong. Done right, a backup utility at most only uses an agent on the systems to be able to contact them to get the data and the backups are not reachable.
Have a look at how BackupPC works, not even an agent, it accesses network shares to get the data:
Banana Pi BPI-M7 router board now available for $165 (RK3588 processor, dual 2.5 Gb Ethernet, WiFi 6 and BT 5.2) ( liliputing.com )
Does this look like a decent starting point for a first router build?...
