Beelink Mini S12 Pro Mini PC, Intel 12th Gen N100 (4C/4T, up to 3.4GHz), 16GB DDR4, 500GB SSD, Desktop Computer Support Dual HDMI 4K@60Hz, WiFi 6, BT5.2, NAS, Low Power

Bought the 16GB RAM, 500GB SSD version. Good quality and design, very quiet and reliable. Surprisingly it shipped with Windows 11 Pro, nice to be able to use Microsoft Remote Desktop to manage it. I added a 2TB SATA SSD and upgraded the RAM to 32GB. Installed Plex Media Server, it's a perfect media center computer without spending much. Almost pure Intel in terms of internal components, so it'll be easy to maintain. It's easy to open the case and work on. Not screaming fast but it's not slow either. Perfect for basic desktop productivity too. I highly recommend this Beelink mini PC, it has a lot of bang for the buck.

Very impressive, I use this for watching media in my bedroom as my Tv is very lack luster in smart features. This little pc is very fast in windows 11 and impressed me with how quiet it is, how easy it was to set up and the price.

I found out Plex requires you to be fully online to work. Had it running on my Nvidia Shield. I bought this to be a server for my home multimedia library using Jellyfin and it exceeded expectations. It's small and lightweight, quiet, runs really well, and has so far handled everything I've thrown at it (1080p and 4K video streams). It even has a generous SDD. I was also pleasantly surprised that Windows 11 was preinstalled on this $150 machine. I'm running Ubuntu on it, but the fact that I can dual boot Windows if I need to is a plus. I would recommend this completely to anyone wanting to run a Jellyfin server for their media.

An excellent little SFF PC that works perfectly for my needs. Paired with a NAS, I was able to set this up exactly as I had envisioned. Great value for the price and the specs are exactly what I needed in this small form factor. Runs perfectly well and has just the right speed and memory for what I needed.

Works great! My kids have a very easy time navigating it, super quick to set up.

Fantastic mini PC for a home server. I’m really happy with the speed, overall performance, and size of it. It’s a little louder than my old mini PC, but isn’t noticeable and the increase in efficiency and performance is worth it.

My old plex server died and I needed a replacement. The beelink showed up and had zero issues setting up windows, even connected to a network. I installed Avast antivirus and threw Plex server on there. In about an hour I was streaming test content via plex. This little guy has zero issues with 480p DVD quality streaming. I also tested up to 1080p and that was fine (although sometimes a noticeable few seconds, <5, to buffer). Most of my collection is ripped DVDs so that's fine. It totally choked on a 4K stream attempt. Don't buy this if you want to stream 4K. A single 480 plex stream uses about 25% of the CPU. I usually stream to a single TV so that's perfect. It should work ok for ~3 streams but I haven't maxed it out yet. All my data is going in an external drive caddy that connects via USB. I have not yet configured it to also work as a file server using windows 11 but see no major roadblocks. Its a standard windows 11 install. For my use case this little device was cheap, easy to setup and seems to work perfectly. We'll see how it holds up in the long run.

I had high expectations for this product which were later made perfect with reinstalling the unit with TrueNAS. Since I was able to install something which made this product work well, I'm giving it a 3 star. If you lack the ability to install a better OS, you may want to rethink your purchase. My hardware configuration is the 2gb boot drive which this comes with plus 4 x 4tb crucial M2 drives. I will be using this in a RAID5 configuration (~12gb usable space). It comes with Windows 10 HOME. This OS is already obsolete out of the box and is not meant for this kind of product. I had all kinds of issues attempting to even get this installed. The screen which sets a windows PIN was blank and seems that it's a fairly common Windows 10 issue. I was able to get around this by turning on the audio assistance and using tab to navigate around using a picture I found in google on another computer to show me what I was looking at virtually. Since this is Windows 10 HOME, there is no way to remote into it once set up. If you want to manage it, you'll need to have it connected to a keyboard, mouse and a monitor. This is something important to remember! In addition, you are using windows to pool the drives then share them out as a SMB device. Windows file shares are definitely not the best performing option out there. When I was performing 4 copies at the same time, the unit dropped all connections. I had it plugged into my 1gig office switch and the best throughput I could achieve was around 40mb. Windows 10 is end of life. There are no security patches available any more for it. And the HOME version of any windows really shouldn't be used for a product like this. However, I really liked the hardware design on this; I believe it's well thought out. I was considering sending it back until another tech friend of mine said he read people were installing TrueNAS on them. I created a USB boot drive with TrueNAS, set up BIOS to boot to USB and installed it. Once I got everything configured and running in TrueNAS I am now recognizing true gb performance and am satisfied with the unit. The unit itself extremely quiet. I can say that it seems to kick out a lot of heat. I guess time will tell if I blow any drives with it. But I think the tower cooling style was well thought out. I wish I had the suggestion of installing TrueNAS on it out of the gate, I would have saved a lot of time screwing around with it. Knowing this, I would by it again. Before purchasing this unit, I would either know how to install and configure TrueNAS or know someone that can help you out. It's a nice little box but just needs a little work to get it running well.

The CPU temperature was approching 70 degrees Celcius. I took the fan/heat sink assemply appart and found a tiny amount of heat sink compond. Stupid manufacturing flaw. Cleaned and reapplied a health amount of HS compond. The CPU temperature is now 40 degrees Cecius with room temperatures of 21 C. The computer is excellent. I have this on my yacht and it draws only 3 watts. I'm on inverter power some times. Very fast processig time.

Excelente relación calidad/ precio. Suficiente para las tareas básicas de oficina y del hogar y multimedia.
