Great video. You covered everything I wanted to know about this machine. I think I'll buy one for my mom as a christmas present since she'll only use it for office, web browsing and some basic photo editing.

Thanks for this video Ben. I've just ordered one of these second-hand (with 120 GB SSD, 8 GB RAM and Windows 10 Pro.) I'm waiting on the courier now and was curious about it. I'm going to use it to run my home security system, monitor my cameras etc. and will probably upgrade the SSD and fit a storage 2.5" HDD. I'm assuming there's a BIOS option to boot from the SATA drive? I'm planning on cloning the system drive to a SATA drive (I have an old 120 GB Samsung SSD in the drawer), replacing the m2 SSD then cloning back to the new one. I'm going to use it ethernet-connected and depending on how it goes I might even try using it as a music server for my home network as well. Cheers.

If you have a magnet at home (like a fridge magnet or something), just slide your screwdriver over it in one direction a couple times (kind of like sharpening a knife) and it will become magnetized.

Hi! I hope you answer my question. What if I use my hdd in my old laptop. Will it work? The windows installed on that is original and i dont plan to purchase another windows 10. And can I transfer the OS to the ssd?

Whether or not you can transfer your existing copy of Windows will depend on its licence. If you have a retail copy then you should be able to transfer the OS. However, if you have an OEM installation (i.e., it came with the laptop), then you cannot transfer it to a new machine and you will need to buy a new licence. A straight swap of the hard drive from an old machine to another to 'get around' this requirement is unlikely to be successful. The new machine will have different hardware which Windows be aware of, causing an activation issue. Also, the different drivers and configuration required by the hardware of the new machine will cause their own problems likely requiring a re-installation of the OS from scratch. As to the practicalities of transferring the hard-drive to your new machine, this may be physically possible, assuming they both adhere to compatible standards and size (e.g., SATA, 2.5"). Note that not all NUC machines have space for a 2.5" hard-drive, in that case limited to only mSATA SSDs. If that's an issue, you can buy caddies which convert internal hard-drives to USB hard-drives, which will allow you to make use of the old drive as secondary storage.

No idea why that's happening I'm afraid. I'm not using Windows 7 anymore so can only give you generic advice. Check your installation media to ensure there's no problem with it being read (e.g., is there obvious damage to the CD?). Check your external optical drive is functioning correctly (do other discs work okay with it?). Use a different USB cable (they're not all created equally). If your external drive is USB powered but it has the option to accept a power supply then try using it with that. Use a different USB socket. Try removing any non-essential peripherals for the duration of the installation (e.g., webcam, printer, scanner - even perhaps the mouse) in case there's a conflict. Finally, are you sure it's freezing? It may be worth trying a different (preferably wired) keyboard and mouse in case there's a problem there rather than with the installation process itself.

hi gabay1953. Maybe you already figured it out but you need Windows 7 installer with USB 3.0 drivers added to it. Intel has a guide and tool which will help you do this. This NUC will work fine on Windows 7 though after following all the steps. It's kind of fiddly but definitely can be done.

hey ben iwanna ask if it's good for video editing ??
@bngn
@bngn 8 жыл бұрын
Hi Michael, It's not something I use my machine for so I can't give you an answer from a position of experience. Also, the nature of video editing can be so broad that a definitive answer is difficult - e.g., simply joining lots of small video clips together that have been filmed on a mobile phone, with minimal transitions between them, for a final 1080P home movie is a different matter to creating a 4K professional production with very high quality source material, many transitions, VFX and titles. I suspect though that light video work on this machine would be alright but anything more on this particular model may be slow compared to a purpose-built desktop machine, particularly when it comes to rendering where you won't have the advantage of hefty GPU acceleration. Of course, there are NUC machines with higher grade processors up-to a Core i7 which may be more acceptable depending on your requirements and RAM shouldn't be an issue but it's important to remember that the processors are similar chips to what you'd find in many laptop computers and so don't have the same power as a desktop designed for the purpose. Also you need to consider storage where you're limited here to 2.5" drives. Unless you look at an SATA or m.2 SSD (both of which could be very expensive considering video editing requires a fair amount of disc space), you'll be limited to a single slow mechanical drive and/or external USB hard drives. With the latter, the appeal of the small form factor is perhaps reduced over a compact but more flexible traditional desktop. In short, you should be able to do some video work but don't expect the high performance of a purpose-built desktop machine with a high-end processor and GPU acceleration for rendering. Your experience may vary though depending on the exact nature of what you're trying to do. I stress again as well that I've not done any tests in this area so this is all purely hypothetical.

what would be a good antivirus for this ?
@bngn
@bngn 7 жыл бұрын
It's a regular PC running ordinary Windows. So, whatever you would normally use. If you don't have a preference, technology news outlets regularly review the latest versions of the most common antivirus products which should be fairly easy to find in your favourite search engine. I won't recommend one myself as I've not conducted a thorough test and general recommendations do change over time.

will this play gamecube and ps2 games on emulators?
@bngn
@bngn 7 жыл бұрын
I would be surprised. It's not something I've tested but there's no dedicated GPU here, just the on-chip graphics which I suspect will struggle. Indeed, I've had difficulties with PS2 emulation on a PC with a proper GPU (albeit a low end one - a Radeon HD7750).

There's no optical drive built-in to this machine, so you'd need an external drive. However, the real limiting factor is going to be the power of the on-board graphics. You'd be able to play old games, perhaps some from a few years back with the settings turned down (but don't quote me on that; I've not tested it), but modern games or games on high/ultra, likely no. Much as the form factor would be nice for a gaming machine, that's not what this is intended for. Unless you're limiting yourself to old games, you'd be better buying/building a mini-ITX gaming PC. You won't get as small as this NUC, but taking care of your hardware choices, you should be able to build something that's compact, with the bonus of a full GPU.

Not part of the user-installable options. The CPU and fan will be on the other side of the motherboard. You can see the exhaust vents above the HDMI, Ethernet and USB sockets at 6:28.
