Orange Pi has disappointed me. I bought an (IIRC) Orange Pi 5B.
There is no sane "boot from SD" button to hold so if there is an SD card in it it tries to boot from that unconditionally. Even if the SD card is not bootable. This might be a dealbreaker for you because it would be nice to have an Octoprint board with expandable storage that didn't act stupid. That's what I wanted.
One of the USB ports is also just fucked. Putting anything in it knocks out the entire USB bus on that side of the board until a restart.
I won't be buying another board from them.
