Who recommended that? Anyway, you find a lot of complaints here in the forum about 'flash storage being unrealiable'. Since no one wants to follow the few easy steps to check for counterfeit/fake flash prior to installing an OS on it.
Well 4gb was the min and i had a spare micro sd card laying around.
I'm going to use a intel branded stick for omv and use the sd card for my ebook reader.
Minimum requirement is 4 GB

Then it depends on how much additional software and plug-ins you want to install.
For example Docker (and its containers) or Plex can use a lot of space. But you can also move the location to a data drive (which is not easy in all cases).
I can't believe i missed that! Thanks
With both SD cards and USB pendrives it's always the same: The larger the better since with same usage then the cards will wear out later. Twice the size --> lives twice as long (and so on).
Personal recommendation even if not needed for OMV: A1 rated cards like SanDisk Ultra A1 (32GB has best price/capacity ratio currently).
Some tips wrt initial steps: If SD card is defect......what to do? (that's also the reason I would prefer SD cards -- since there you can do a TRIM from time to time!)
I'll use a 16gb pen drive. Makes it easier than using a 4bg micro sd card.
I'm looking at installing omv 4.0 on a Hp microserver gen 8 via iLO and need to know what size should the target location for the iso be?
This usb drive or micro sd will be used to launch omv.
Thanks.
Hey guys,
