The NanoPi NEO and NanoPi NEO2 are pin-to-pin compatible super-mini ARM computers released by FriendlyElec. The NanoPi NEO uses Allwinner's quad-core Cortex-A7 H3 SoC while the NanoPi NEO2 usus Allwinner's 64-bit quad-core Cortex-A53 H5 SoC. Both have onboard Ethernet and USB.
The 1-bay NAS Dock V1.2 for NanoPi NEO&NEO2 uses high speed USB 3.0 to SATA chip JMS567. It has an onboard RTC battery. It works with the latest mainline kernal Linux-4.11 and Debian8-Jessie.
