As for your advice, I'm considering using an HD or SSD instead of SD
Can you tell me please:
- what kind of HD did you use ? A 2.5" SATA3 with USB adapter ?
- brand, model, capacity ? WD ? Are all brands good ?
- the RPI3 USB port is not capable of powering HD, is it true ? The HD
must have its own power supply, right ?....or powered USB hub...

What do you think if I install a Western Digital WDS120G2G0A Green SSD,
or SanDisk Plus SSD 120G, or Crucial etc.
Does the RPI3's USB port supply an SSD directly ?... or maybe even in
this case a powered USB hub is recommended...

What do you think about it ?
Thank you
