ODROID C1 Review Requested
Has anyone here been using the ODROID C1 as a Linux mini-server, running continuously, say, 30+ days:
- what OS?
- running what applications?
- any performance issues?
- any problems with overheating? (with or w/o heatsink?)
For those interested in the previous thread on this subject:

@KuJoe made an comparison between RPi+/RPi2/C1 on vpsb.
I'm certain he is willing to share his opinion about it.
Check this guys blog, he has benchmarks etc.

Mine hasn't been running for 30+ days but I have a Raspberry Pi Model B+ that has and the ODroid C1 (with the heatsink) runs cooler than my Raspberry Pi so it shouldn't have any issues with heat.
Here's some of my posts with benchmarks and comparisons:

I've used mine as a headless samba+torrent+tonido home server for ~7 days straight without heatsink and inside the case which is confirmed to cause heat issues and I didn't run into anyo problems. I still highly recommend buying the heatsink though as It runs very hot when I connect it to the monitor and try to play some videos. As a headless server, I believe the C1 is better than the Rpi2.
