Domoticz

Wanting to jump in to smarting out my home and thinking of doing it with Domoticz. Even though that Pi4 has been released for a while now I can’t seem to find any pros for it, but I do read some (minor?) cons. It’s hard getting a Pi3B+ around here, all in backorder, so I’m thinking of going with the Raspberry Pi4.

It has better hardware but I don’t think Domoticz is in need of that. The thing I keep reading is that it is not yet possible to boot from SSD.

What are your thoughts on the Pi 4, and its pros and cons for Domoticz?https://omegle.onl/ vshare

I boot my 3B+ and 4 from SSD, so it is possible.

RPI4 has been bootable from USB-SSD for about a year now, here is just one of many links you will find if you google it.

Domoticz runs fine on a Raspberry Pi 4 booting from SSD. A new Pi4 will boot without even needing a SD, image the SSD wit the Raspberry Pi Imager.
Make sure you have a USB controller with the ASMEDIA IC. https://thepihut.com/products/retroflag ... -enclosure e.g. (alas the cheaper one at Pihut is sold out)

You will like the speed and have enough disk space for growth.

Very stable also. Only reboot when you update or add something.
