FAST – a backronym for ‘Fast Access to Storage Technology’ – is the name given by Andy Marks of RISCOSbits to a new range of machines launched at the 2023 Southwest Show – machines that do exactly as the acronym suggests, by accessing the PCIe port on the Raspberry Pi Compute Module to provide up to four full-speed SATA ports.
