As an IT of 20+ years, I bought this because it was cheap ( with coupon of course ) so i decided to test it out. I been using a duel boot Win11 and Kali linux HP laptop since 2020. Very powerful as i put a 1TB SSD and a 16GB ram stick, not complaints. But i needed something smaller and thats why i got this mini F10. I had zero issue mounting and setting it up ( 10 minutes tops ). Installed a few updates and saved my Windows product key. It saved me alot of room! I decided to open the F10 to check the inside. There is a welcomed spot for a HDD but I rather stick with SSD as they last longer but i tried it out with an old HDD and reformatted it and the F10 sees it no issue. But the lack of having an extra slot for another SSD is lackluster.
I decided to download a few apps but i am having issue with the Microsoft store as the updating of the apps will not update. Did a scan repair and fixed issues, then i did a DISM repair and still having issues. No big deal since its Microsoft. Getting into a BIOS by pressing the DEL key was fun as there is amazing amount of settings. This is a plus! Also there is no bloatware as well!
PRO: room saver, HDD slot, easy mount to tv or monitor, Bios settings.
CON: no extra slot for SSD, no USB-C port
