There is no more cortex-a12 as a prod

I was going to say, the only downside was the lack of sata..

If
Analog or pulse-width control of the fan could make it variable speed.

Plenty of CPU power would be nice.
A good storage interface (in order of preference SATA is better than
USB3 which is better than USB2).
Support in Debian kernels would be nice.
arm64 support

Well I did pick up the armdale octa which is 4xA15 (plus 4 not usable A7s)
for $200us a year or two ago. It does not have support in the Debian
kernel as far as I kno
The imx.6 4xA9 is about as good as your gunna get for the budget.

I'm looking for an arm board/box to add to my collection of buildboxes.
Critera (in roughly descending order of importance):
Reasonablly affordable (upper limit ~£200)
As much ram as possible.
Plenty of CPU power would be nice.
A good storage interface (in order of preference SATA is better than
20 matches
