MS-01

Minisforum MS-01 Why this over the MS-A2? This has intel iGPU great for plex emby etc. Also you can use SR-IOV and slice the iGPU up and pass a slices to different VMs. You can do this with the AMD iGPU. I this box you get 3xNVMe 2xSFP+ Low profile PCIe slot (great for small gpu or HBA and run a who

Eu de ex am pus un minisforum ms-01 cu proxmox/opnsense, ca router, si un minisforum ms-a2 cu 128gb ddr5/12tb nvme tot cu proxmox pt gazduit diverse servicii. Am ales modelele astea pt ca au 2x2.5 + 2x10g sfp, consuma putin, stocare buna, poti pune si un intel arc pt encode in jellyfin etc.

running an llm in a 10-inch rack is a fun challenge. you're gonna want as much vram as you can fit. for that size, something like a Minisforum MS-01 with a decent gpu could work, though fitting a full-size card is tough. i've seen people have good luck with qwen 2.5 7b or 14b models - they run decen

i get wanting to cut that power draw down. the dell i7s can be thirsty for sure. something like a Beelink or Minisforum with a newer mobile chip would be a solid swap. the Beelink SER8 or Minisforum MS-01 idle well under 20w but still have the performance to handle OnlyOffice. waiting for panther la

Yeah, so much mileage out of still-good, but older hardware!! I like running an Ubuntu VM with Docker in Proxmox. One of my favorite business builds: Minisforum MS-01 i9 barebones (~$650 USD) 128GB RAM (used to be $500 lol) 3x 8TB NVMe SSD's (used to be $800 lol) @ 2x ZFS mirror boot + 1x replicatio

The GeForce now network requirements are quite modest. I don’t think you need to upgrade anything but run cat6 if you want to enjoy 10Gb for downloading other things. You’ll need to upgrade any network switches and clients if you want to have full 10Gb. I recommend Unifi network equipment. For a com

If you're gonna splurge anyway, get the minisforum ms-01. It's not that much bigger and you get 4 Intel nics, with 2 of them being 10gbit sfp+ ports, 3 nvme slots and a pcie slot.

Minisforum MS-01 has 3 NVMe or can even take a large U.2 NVMe. The Max can take 4 NVMe. And you have the Minisforum NAS or Aoostar something that can have 5+3 or 6+3 (SATA+NVMe) drive. Though you might also consider buying a combo of Minisforum MS-01 + Thunderbolt DAS instead of having a prebuilt th

This is not my appliance as it is owned by the client: OptiPlex 7050 SFF Core i-7 that the client had lingering somewhere at the time of implementation. I don’t know the price, but it is old, cheap and reliable. Still in production but about to be replaced. In my experience, anything that can run Wi

I recommend the Minisforum MS 01 or AS. They difference is Intel or AMD. I use the Minisforum MS 01 with three SSD from Lexar with ZFS
