This is the hardware I use in this tutorial:

  • Raspberry Pi 5 or Raspberry Pi 4 with 8GB of RAM

  • 2TB portable SSD

You'll find that on Amazon or anywhere else.

Unlike the , this approach does not require a separate microSD card for the OS. Everything will be flashed and installed directly onto the portable SSD.
