This is cool but a shame that they didnt contact Luke for using something like the a20 or wait for the rk3388 so we could have more money leverage on the soc and common ICs or even turn this into an eoma housing.

that's a *really* specialist SoC, with USB3, PCIe, 5x GbE and specialist hardware for optimised throughput on routing tables *and* hardware-level accelerated crypto.
PCIe could be used to connect NVMe, or, as appears to be the case here, a PCIe bridge plus SATA.
so it's a great choice of SoC, that doesn't fit into EOMA68 (or EOMA200 for that matter, as it lacks video output).
