I’ve tried using á RockPro64 with FreeBSD 13.0-CURRENT and although it runs just fine without hacks I’ve noticed the performance is not that good. FreeBSD is not big.little aware so it doesn’t distinct between the A53 and A72 cores. Cryptographic hardware acceleration is not very good. On the other hand most Linux distros work quite well.
Then there is the piece of flaming crap that is the ASMedia PCI-E SATA card that they sell along with the board on their store. That thing cannot handle 2 SSDs and its not a problem with power delivery. Replacing it with some marvel based cards.
