Hi,
we used the RT5350f-OLinuxino board for a router project and it worked very well.
Now we are evaluating if we could use it in an IOT application, where we need some more flash room for the app and the data.
I wonder if you can suggest us what's the better way to increase the available amount of flash:

  • is there any chance the OLinuxino modules can mount a bigger flash chip on board instead of the default one?
  • could a second bigger flash chip on the same SPI, but using chip select 1, be a solution?
  • external USB flash drive? I fear this solution because the device has to be mounted on industrial environment
  • other?
Many thanks!
