Discover the unsung hero of homelabs! We almost didn't make this video because there's so little to complain about with this nearly perfect mini PC. Find out why this little powerhouse, bought cheaply on Facebook Marketplace, is a game-changer for homelab enthusiasts, delivering silent, powerful performance without breaking the bank.

This isn't your average mini PC. With its industrial design, complete with functional heatsink fins, it stands out from the crowd. Unlike many devices that leave you wishing for more, this one simply works. We'll dive into the specific features that make it an ideal choice for a homelab setup, especially if you're looking for dedicated networking and abundant storage. It boasts an Intel i3 N305 CPU, an "efficiency core only" processor that punches well above its 15W TDP, offering performance comparable to a 65W i5-8500 while remaining completely silent.

One of the standout features is its connectivity: four Intel i226 2.5Gb ports, allowing for dedicated Ethernet ports for virtual machines and simplifying network configurations, especially with TrueNAS. But the real showstopper is inside – a daughterboard with four NVMe slots, providing incredible storage potential. We'll also explore how we're running TrueNAS Scale on this device, highlighting its strengths for virtualisation and container management, making it an all-in-one solution for your home server needs.
