Debian on Orion devices

Orion is a system on a chip (SoC) from Marvell that integrates an ARM CPU, Ethernet, SATA, USB, and other functionality in one chip. There are many Network Attached Storage (NAS) devices on the market that are based on an Orion chip. They make nice home servers that are fairly powerful, pretty quiet and don't consume too much electricity. Orion based devices are a great platform to run Debian and together with Debian they can be a very powerful environment.

Debian supports a number of Orion based devices. There are additional pages with instructions and information about all supported devices:

Debian also supports Marvell's Kirkwood platform, the successor of Orion.
