Title: Rock-solid little Ubuntu server — running our field app 24/7
I bought this to replace a Raspberry Pi as the host for an internal web app my company uses, and it's been exactly what I needed. Wiped Windows, installed Ubuntu Server 24.04 — everything came up clean with no driver hunting, no BIOS fights. NIC, NVMe, and Wi-Fi all recognized out of the box.It's been running headless on a shelf ever since: PocketBase backend, nginx, and a Cloudflare Tunnel serving about 15 field techs who hit it all day from phones and tablets. Uploads with photos, database writes, the whole thing — it doesn't flinch. Migrated a few hundred records and over a hundred photos onto it in one go and it never spiked hard enough for me to notice.What I like most for this use case:Power draw is tiny. Fine to leave on 24/7 without thinking about it.Quiet. The fan is audible if you put your ear to it, otherwise it's a non-issue in an office.Enough RAM and NVMe headroom to run the database, a reverse proxy, and a couple of containers without feeling cramped.Small enough to disappear behind a monitor or on a rack shelf.Minor gripes: the included power brick has a short cord, and the BIOS is a little sparse if you want fine-grained control over fan curves or wake-on-LAN. Neither has actually cost me anything.If you're looking at a mini PC as a home lab or small-business server instead of a desktop, this is a good pick. It's been more reliable than the Pi it replaced and cost less than a used rack server would have in power alone.Ver másVer menos
