The Raspberry Pi 3 runs a version of Debian. It is quite small. Mine runs a
BCM2709 processor. That's a
​64 bit ARM processor. HOWEVER! The Debian that I have to run is only 32
bit.  It has 1 GiB of RAM and 32 GiB of flash memory which is the disk. It
runs 1.2 Ghz. It has 4 USB ports so you could plug in a USB connected disk,
if you need more local disk space.
