Hi Patrick! Exactly like you said, those USB 2.0 ports are still really valuable for keyboard and mouse receivers. USB 3.0 can often interfere with 2.4ghz RF at close range. Ideally, you'd even put a little hub on the port to get the receiver away from the other USB 3.0. It was a whole thing back in the day when I was in client tech support and USB docks first started being a thing. For the SD card slot, I 100% agree it would have been better as full size. Do you think they were thinking of imaging Raspberry Pi and other SBC systems? Even then I'd argue for SDcard, since the micro SD almost always comes with an adapter anyway.
@Lishtenbird8 ай бұрын
Oh - I've always been wondering, which part exactly is interfering? The chip itself, the protocol, something in the hub too? Like, can you just use a USB 2.0 hub/cable to bypass that issue? Or is a 3.0 hub okay too, as long as it's away from the port?

@@Lishtenbird The USB 3 design itself leads to the interference on the 2.4GHz band. The reference frequency for the USB data lines is 2.5GHz and that's close enough to cause interference with 2.4GHz radios.

The interference caused the mouse cursor to stutter.

It may sound like a niche but honestly for modern NVR scenarios these units are actually a viable option. I'm looking forward for a Ryzen 80x0 vs Meteor-Lake!

There actually are adapters to go from a micro SD slot to a full SD slot, they're just not as common and compact as the other way around.

There is an option to go up to larger capacities, but no option to exclude it. Are these Intel NUCs, or are they off-brand?

I wished that they would just make it bigger so that it WOULDN'T thermal throttle itself.

I don't feel it's actually silly to have a microSD slot vs regular size. Far more devices use microSD than regular sized nowadays, and you could just buy a microSD card and put it in an adapter for your camera. Added benefit: if camera manufacturers ever decide to get to the year 2023, you don't have to buy new storage chips. Kinda moot since SD storage has gotten really cheap nowadays, but the point still exists. MicroSD slot being there caters to more people than it would to have a full sized slot, and probably saves space on the interior by doing so. Other than cameras, there's literally no use for regular SD cards anymore. It's a dying standard that the camera market just refuses to let go of for some strange reason. There's no difference in capacity availability, nor speed. The literal only difference is the form factor. It's time camera manufacturers learned to adapt. Imagine if people got upset that we couldn't fit an old NES cartridge into a Nintendo Switch. The argument would be preposterous, and would be laughed at immediately. I laugh equally at the exact same notion being presented here- that old tech using old form factors should be indefinitely supported when the physical size of flash storage chips has shrunken and caused obsolescence of the older form factor. In fact, if you open your SD card, you'd likely see it's mostly empty space because of that reason exactly. They aren't producing two separate chips, but just creating different plastic casings to hold the same chips. Reason I say camera users should use an adapter to convert microSD to regular for their cameras: they're literally the market lagging behind current storage tech. Anyone with a mobile game console, smartphone, or any other device utilizing SD technology are already on the microSD market. Makes sense financially and physically for the end product to make the lowest common denominator be the ones to have to jump the hoops to convert the tech.

@@ServeTheHomeVideo fair. That only creates even more of a niche market though. Hard for a company trying to make a successful mass produced product to cater to every need though. Nice to have, but realistically the manufacturers are going to go for the largest customer base they can. I’d even go as far as to say my previous comment was a little … under thought, because it’s obvious the product has space for an SD slot. The market it would seem influenced them though. If not that, I have no idea why they’d do so. Cost can’t have been it.

Too bad no ECC memory support with this CPU I would like to see a NUC geared more towards a home server (increased cores, ecc memory, more M.2 storage, 10GB Ethernet, low idle power consumption etc)

Here is the crazy part. Raptor Lake still has not been released for the Xeon E server market. I am not kidding on that one. We have a server using Raptor Lake and we cannot review it due to the embargo

ECC with a BGA laptop CPU is just way too niche. You can get ECC with desktop CPUs using the W680 chipset, but there are very few board models, they're ITX or larger, and they're expensive. What you need is also what I want: a C3000 series successor. The C5000 series is way too expensive and power hungry. Edit: I forgot, AMD V3000 also exists, though there are very few systems currently using it.
