RouterBoard 1200

Tue Sep 13, 2011 11:16 pm

Hello everyone ! I am amazed of this routerboard ! It has 1 Ghz procesor Gigabit ports and 512 Ram !
Its data storage is only 64 MB .. If I buy this one do i have chances to make its data storage more then 64 MB ?
It damn better then 750

why do you need more storage? it's a router, not a server.

I think 64 MiB of data storage (disk) should be enough - but I don't know how many data uses each User Manager's user account in database.

But there is other thing: I don't know why, but RB1200 that I've bought in July has 1 GiB of RAM. Actually it seems that dealers are selling 512 MiB version and so do you have on website. I think 512 MiB is plenty of memory and my question is - how could somebody use it? :) My RB1200 has cca 970 MiB of free memory :) I've increased DNS cache a little but it will not use a lot. Maybe the memory could be used as proxy cache in some way? AFAIK it can use disk storage only. Maybe very big (old) log entries of User Manager may need it?

"new users" will not take up any HDD space. HDD space only is affected by installed NPK packages

I've installed Dude package (which is not working, but it doesn't matter now: http://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=55090) and now I have less than 7 MB free on disk :shock: I use User Manager as well. Is it possible to see how much space is taken by each store? Maybe it would be better to have more disk space, really :wink:

I had to change my opinion completely - now I am sure it would be better to have more disk space. Today I've got to less than 1 MB of free disk space! Here is my story: http://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=55090

why do you need more storage? it's a router, not a server.
Userman database? backups?
after dude is installed, you can't do much (in terms of disk space) such a waste...

I believe 64M is not enough, sorry Normis
