Shuttle XPC Slim DX30 Barebone Review

Others/All-in-one PC by stefan @ 2017-02-22

XPC Slim DX30 is one of the latest passively cooled Mini-PCs from Shuttle, which does sport the Intel Celeron J3355 Apollo Lake dual-core SoC. The barebone can be equipped with no less than 8GB of DDR3L SODIMM RAM, a M.2 SSD, one 2.5’’ HDD/SSD while the wireless connectivity is assured by the manufacturer thanks to the preinstalled M.2-2230 WLAN card with Realtek RTL8188EE Controller. The product does feature a lot of interfaces so it can be used at home, in offices but also for industrial applications; in all cases, the overall power consumption is very small thanks to the technological process of the new Intel cores.

Product Specifications Part I

Fanless and silent

Completely fanless, virtualy noiseless

Passive cooling through convective heat transfer

Perfect to be used in noise-sensitive environments

Fanless means less dust and thus virtually no maintenance required

 

Low Power Consumption

Power consumption in idle mode: 7.0 W

Power consumption under full load: 11.8 W / 19.7 W (CPU / CPU+graphics)

(measured with 2x 2 GB DDR3L-1600 SO-DIMMs and 60 GB 2.5" SSD under Windows 10 64-bit)

 

Chassis

Nettop PC with black chassis made of steel

Dimensions: 190 x 165 x 43 mm (LWH) = 1.35-litre

Weight: 1.3 kg net and 2.1 kg gross

Two holes for Kensington Locks and numerous

threaded holes (M3) at both sides of the chassis

 

Operation Position

1) Horizontal

2) Vertical (e.g. VESA-mounted behind an appropriate monitor)

In vertical position, the front USB ports should show upwards.

Ventilation holes must not be blocked to ensure sufficient cooling.
