Refurbished PowerColer AXR7 250

I should have done more research into the compatibility of this hardware with the software I intended to use on it before purchasing. If you intend to run Windows or a popular Linux distro, this box will probably work great for you.

Small, quiet, easy to work inside

Don't fool yourself into thinking you're going to (easily) use this for Sophos UTM Home or ESXi 6.0. Neither of them install easily. Sophos UTM because it uses HDMI and DisplayPort exclusively - there is no VGA port and Sophos UTM is designed for...

Awesome little case

I thought I was going to have to buy a low profile CPU cooler, but I didn't realize until it was shipped to my front door that it had integrated cooling built in. I know I saw that somewhere on the description, but it slipped my mind.

Not really a con: I wish it didn't use intel HD graphics controller to set the position between portrait and landscape, but it's a simple keyboard shortcut to change it

Best Booksize Barebone I've ever had

I was not able to find their recommended memory to use, but per my experience as long as it's memory from a recognized vendor and it meets the motherboard specifications you will be fine.

Took me no longer than 10 minutes to assemble this machine. I needed a unit that was low profile and at the same time perform. Following the support list for this CPU (maximum TDP of 65Watts) I was able to pair this unit ; with an i3-4330 and I am very...

Not Really a con but if you need to enable mSATA you will have to adjust it on the BIOS
