Beelink ME Mini PC Intel N95, 12GB LPDDR5+1TB SSD, 6*M.2 SSD Slots, ME Mini Computer Support Dual 2.5G LAN, Cloud Disk, Virtual Machine, Soft Router, NAS, HTPC

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.

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.

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.

This PC works well for non-compute intensive tasks such as web browsing, spreadsheets, text writing, 2D image editing. It does not do well with high CPU requirements like online 3D gaming (the max framerate is way too slow) or high-end computation like 3D image rendering. There is what I'd call weak tech support available from a public message website, but not all postings get answered. The ones that do seem to be about 90% effective, but it's not unusual for people to have to resolve their own problems. Overall I'm glad I switched from my former desktop PC (with an i5 CPU) because this unit is really very small, quiet, and uses far less power. I didn't realize how annoying the fan noise from my old PC actually was - the Mini is totally silent and that is a much greater benefit than I expected. I do a fair amount of 3D computation, and I do miss the CPU power my old machine had - but you get what you pay for. The fact that it's made in China and not in the US does bug me a bit - but we all live in the real world.

I got it to handle many webcams with OBS for Twitch/Youtube. It is replacing a Raspberry Pi. More powerful than I thought it would be. - Handles 2x 1440p monitors well - Handles many OBS webcams well. ---- Due to bandwidth limits, you'll have trouble plugging many cameras into one USB -> Hub -<> Cameras chain. ---- you'll probably need a USB Hub per USB Port - Startup is faster than me - Browsing is snappy - Discord works well - I managed to run Docker Desktop on it. - I managed to do node development with VSCode. All of these things are complete garbage on a Raspberry Pi, despite the Raspberry Pi's claims otherwise. The cost compares reasonably to a Raspberry Pi kit. Despite this, you get more in every respect. - "Real" processor - "Real" USB - Standard HDMI - Can *actually* handle the monitor sizes it says it can - Plenty of fast storage space - Runs Windows if you want - Doesn't give you a swirly if you look at it wrong The enclosure is not even much larger than a Raspberry Pi's enclosure. It can't run Rocket League, but I wasn't really expecting it to.

Bought this to use as a hobby pc - maybe virtual machines, plex, etc. Out of the box, setup is easy. Nice small unit and runs fast. I upgraded the 500 ssd to a 2T ssd, which seems to be working fine. the ssd runs at x1, instead of of the current x4 due to limitations of the pc. But, for the price, it can't be beat. I have setup features like WOL and completed updates. The only downside I've seen is I can hear the fan occasionally, which surprised me. This won't matter since I plan to run headless in a network closet. Opening the unit for upgrades only requires four screws and easy access to the ram, ssd and 2.5 inch hard drive slot. Definitely a fun, affordable little unit capable of most home chores. I don't play games, so I can't comment on any heavy lifting, but look forward to running some virtual machines on the unit.

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.

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.
