NUC 14 Pro

I would set it up exactly like I have it now: ASUS NUC 14 Pro (ultra 7, 32GB ram) running Ubuntu + Docker on mirrored NVMEs. Synology DS running SHR with 52 TB spinning disk storage, with caching drive. NFS mounted, pass through iGPU. Beast mode, fast, stable, lots of streams, 4K, whatever. I have a

I started with a minisforum PC, and it was okay but failed after a year. Frustrated and willing to pay for something that I figured less likely to just go tits up in a year, I got a NUC 14 Pro. I have been pleased with the performance. Intel 155H processor, 64GB RAM, has no problem keeping up with m

u/Cocoatech0 you did not include ASUS, which has long been an industry stalwart and now includes the NUC product line. We offer both ASUS NUC products and ASUS mini PC solutions.

I'm glad you read it, I hope it was useful! Overall, it's a good system—it's always-on, but it's moved to being a mini-server, so it's not on my desk. It's reasonably efficient, I'd recommend it. Of note, the NUC 14 Pro is the last version to include support for 2.5" 15mm drives, the NUC 15 Pro remo

I bought and Asus Nuc 14 pro+ and have the same experience. Paid a whole lot more for similar performance than some of these other brands, but I was willing to do it for my own use case. I didn't want failing ports or dying. Motherboards a year or so after the purchase. But I understand why people g

I have the Asus Nuc 14 pro +, and it's an excellent mini PC. I knew I was paying considerably more money for the same specs that I could get cheaper, but I wanted long-term reliability, the 3-year warranty, and a website that was clear and useful to install the proper drivers and get my questions an

I can throw some suggestions out but this is just one person's opinion. Top tier reliability and support: Dell, HP, Lenovo, Asus. These won't be competitive in price performance against the mass produced units, but they are the gold standard for reliability and support. Some of the mass produced com

I did this a few months ago too (also using a DS920) with a NUC 14 Pro, super happy I did. So much better and more reliable.
