It's been up for 315 days as I write this, taking around ten watts to power the board and the drive, so it's power-efficient and reliable.It comes in a nice box with the cables required to connect up a SATA drive. You do, however, need to supply your own power supply. A phone charger will do nicely.It has on-board NAND flash and it can boot from that or from an inserted SD-card. The NAND comes pre-loaded with Android but the board is better served by Linux. I used ArchLinux ARM for my evaluation and ongoing usage but there's also a Debian-derivative called Cubian. The boot process uses U-Boot and, given the technical skill, this means you can tweak it to your needs.When I initially reviewed the Cubieboard, it outperformed the then-current Raspberry Pi significantly but it loses that advantage with the latest Pi versions. Since writing my original review I would say the Raspberry Pi might be a better option (with the exception that the Cubieboard has the benefit of a SATA port). It really depends on your needs. There is a support community but it isn't as mature as the Pi one. I would suggest looking at the latest Pi before buying this today, especially considering the price difference.Considering the Cubieboard in isolation, it is a good small-board computer and runs Linux very well. It's low power consumption and SATA interface makes it an ideal candidate for an always-on home-server project from which you can expect long uptimes. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great board *by A***S on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 24 November 2013* I first tried Raspberry Pi but it was a bit slow for sftp due to weaker CPU. Next was BeagleBone Black but it does not recognize new network after cable pulled out and plugged in. This one worked and speed is good for me. This board also have SATA port. Great product but if you want more check if CubieTruck is better for you. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/58567874-cubieboard-2-with-the-a20-chip-from-new-it](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/58567874-cubieboard-2-with-the-a20-chip-from-new-it) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-09-18*
