Use USB stick as main memory
can you somehow use the usb stick as a standard gcode storage?
possibly about to mount?
because i don't want to have all the files on the sd card and want to see the files via a preview.
USB sticks are cheaper and last longer.
or is usb 2.0 too slow?
or is there a config file where you can change that?

Well for server that is no problem. We automount all usb sticks. With latest image up to 3. Problem might be order of mount so you might want to write a dedicated mount in /etc/fstab that is bound to stick id. Then it is also there when server starts, so guess better do that.
All data is stored in /var/lib/Repetier-Server - you can make that folder a link to the usb stick then everything including printer config, timelapse, logs etc. gets stored on usb stick or you decide to do so only for special folders mapping to folders on usb stick. Just stop repetier before doing so. You can then copy the folder to usb and rename it and link the old name.
/var/lib/Repetier-Server/printer/Sapphire_Plus/models
and
/var/lib/Repetier-Server/printer/Sapphire_Plus/timelapse
otherwise this would be a suggestion for an update that can be made customizable (which memory should be used by default)
There is a config option that tells where the folder is, but it is only for the complete part so same as the link solution and it is a xml file in the installation/etc folder.
