Love this thing
Pros: SFF That can pack a punch. LGA1200 that will accept desktop CPUs (not just mobile). Extremely easy to set up and customize
Cons: Comes with AC wireless instead of AX.
Overall Review: I love this little computer. Its like a NUC but with desktop quality performance. Optimal space saving placement of 2.5in ssd mounts. My specs for this: Intel i5-11600k Noctua NH-L9i cpu cooler 64GB DDR4 3200 Ram 2 x 500GB SATA SSDs 2 × 1TB NVMe M.2s
Corrupted after 4th data transfer
Pros: Fast while it lasted
Cons: Poor quality. Died very shortly after purchase
Overall Review: Used this drive as installation media for Windows 10. I was able to install Win10 using this USB for 3 different PCs. On the fourth, the data became corrupted. I went to reformat and Windows wont even read the device. It actually freezes Windows Explorer so the entire PC is locked up when it tries to read the drive. If I pull it out, the PC will resume functioning. I was able to replicate this on multiple computers and operating systems.
Good but no hyperthreading
Overall Review: 4/5. If it was 2018 it would be 5/5. Unfortunately I had to use 1151 sockets. Should have gone with the i9
