Abstract

Single-Board Computers (SBC) are very popular nowadays mainly because of their low price and sufficient performance for basic automation, multimedia, networking etc. tasks. The goal of this contribution was to find appropriate SBC with low price, free software for creation of a personal File hosting service for sharing, distribution and backup of files in small network. There were chosen two candidates from the group of Pi-based SBC, Raspberry Pi 2 and Banana Pi M2 which were then submitted to the performance tests. The open-source ownCloud instance was chosen for the File hosting task. There were also mentioned disadvantages and problems of SBC together with improvements and solutions of these problems.
