Review: Quality machine with a wide selection of connections - This device replaced my 5 year-old, larger desktop. My motivation was to have a quiet, small form factor and more powerful machine for home use. The initial Windows 11 boot up was smooth and I easily installed all the applications I used previously. This included a 2004 version of Quicken and 2010 MS desktop. To increase the overall memory capacity I added a separate 500GB SSD, see photo, to increase the overall memory to 1TB. In addition, I purchased a CD drive to assist in application installation and some Thunderbolt 4 to USB 3.2 adapters. You will also need to purchase a power cord to connect the transformer to you home outlet. This evidently frees Intel from having to have different version for international sales. All these items are available on desertcart My current setup Front USB 3.2 – unused USB 3.2 – unused Back: Thunderbolt 4 - SSD Thunderbolt 4 with USB adapter - camera HDMI – monitor HDMI – unused USB 3.2 – mouse USB 2.0 – keyboard RJ45 - Unused Wireless – printer What I really like is the large number of high performance connections. This provides a lot of flexibility for new devices. For example, I can easily connect my slide scanner or CD drive to the front when needed. I’m not a gamer, so I can comment on that performance aspect. The most processing intensive application I perform is 35mm slide scanning. This requires multiple scans per slide, specifically visible light, Infrared, for dust removal and a third scan to remove inherent scan jitter. The scan time is much less than my previous I5-8400 series processor. It’s also very quiet, even when the fan runs occasionally. Overall it looks sharp, performs well and is very well made.
Review: Three Years Strong and Still Going - Bought this back in 2023 and I'm writing this review three years later because I figured it was finally time to give credit where it's due. My Intel NUC 12 Pro has been running continuously since the day I unboxed it — and I mean continuously — without a single problem. Not one crash. Not one hiccup. Not one weird issue that made me Google a fix at 2 AM. Nothing. What I love: The silence is unreal. I keep mine on my desk and I genuinely forget it's powered on. No fan noise, no whining, no clicking — just quiet, steady performance. I routinely run 10+ intensive programs at the same time, and somehow it just... handles it. The wild part? I'm still on the original 16 GB of RAM. I keep telling myself I'll upgrade "someday," but it's never struggled enough to justify it. The build quality is excellent for the size. It tucks away nicely, doesn't collect dust like a tower would, and looks clean on a desk. Bottom line: If you're debating whether a small form factor PC can really keep up with your workload — yes. This one absolutely can. Three years in, zero regrets, and I'd buy it again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend! Would recommend to a friend: Yes
