SBC RAM Amount?
-
I'm building a printer with a Duet 3 6HC and a SBC. I'm going with a raspberry pi 5. Is it beneficial to use the 8gb ram model or will the 4gb ram model be sufficient. Is there any benefit of more ram like the 16gb model?

@charliedrums - I use Rpi5 with 8Gb and it works perfectly. But I recommend throwing away the SD card and going the SSD route. It works absolutely sensationally. Compared to Rpi4 + SD card, the system boot is many times faster.

O I never thought of that. If I go with the M.2ssd to burn the image do I use just a regular NVMe to USB Adapter and then use an nvme hat for the pi 5?

@charliedrums Yes. Exactly as you write. Just burn image to SSD and enjoy
I use this hat: https://rpishop.cz/499226/pimoroni-nvme-base-for-raspberry-pi-5/
