Booting from SSD

[josbmw]

Hi Mike,

The boot time remains an issue. I flashed the USB boot firmware to the Pi and tried to boot Android from SSD to improve boot time, but this does not seem to work.
Any idea what could be the problem?

Even booting from NVME won't make it faster at this point, Tesla Android boots up quicker than other alternatives right now and there are still software things I can improve

I've sent you a link for two different fans; no cases.

If you are looking to get rpi4s look at rpilocator.com

Ah ok, I got "this one is decent and there is a dedicated case for it" but it's only the link to the fan.

Do the other components need no cooling? There are many solutions available with individual heat sinks plus CPU.

This is the case that goes with the fan: https://argon40.com/products/argon-poly-raspberry-pi-4-vented-case they are available everywhere, even on amazon

Thanks, Amazon sells it as a kit in Germany, ordered one.
