This is an Intel Core i3 N300 8-Core fanless mini-PC with 4x i-226V 2.5 Gbe Ethernet ports.
The Core i3 N300 chip runs at up to 3.8GHz (MAX) and operates at a cool 7 TDW).
These have an enhanced heavy aluminum duty thermal cooling chassis.
To ensure quality, I had these boxes shipped with no SSD or RAM, so I procured and installed new quality components from reputable manufacturers.
For pre-built units, I manually configure each device. This is to ensure that it powers on, detects components, OS is successfully installed and there is a working USB and HDMI port for manual configuration.
This device is perfect for use as a PFSense or OpnSense firewall.
While I do not sell or support the OS, Installation of PFsense or OpnSense is included with your firewall purchase at no additional cost.
This model comes with PFSense 2.7 by default.
If you would like OpnSense installed, please let me know when ordering.

The i3-N300 CPU only officially supports up to 16GB RAM. In some cases, they have been shown to work with 32GB. You are welcome to try this, but dont count on 32GB working.
This model DOES NOT come with built-in Wi-Fi. You can add Wi-Fi if you would like but will need to add all hardware. Opnsense/PFsense WiFi adapter support is minimal. Most people will use a standalone AP with this device. I can give recommendations upon request.
