Quieter 4C Fanless Mini PC, N100 16GB 512GB, Triple Display

Love this little box, mine's currently sitting quietly in the cabinet under the TV, taking up almost no space, running Plex on Linux Mint. Handles all 1080p H264 movies I throw at it. It does struggle a bit with 4K H265, but I'd rather have the much smaller file size - 4K is really for those who like to play Top Trumps, IMHO. The box can run hot, but that's the price you pay for the size and lack of fan - the case is doing what it's supposed to do. It's been running reliably non-stop for a few years now, and has only hung once, which was my fault (a process died when I ran out of disk space). It may not be fast enough for some people, but general browsing, email, content consumption is very useable. I've not tried gaming on it, but then again I used to run Minecraft on an Atom based 1GB Samsung NC10 quite happily, so I'm not the kind of player that pushes kit to its limits trying to get every last FPS out of something. I would definitely buy again if this one died.

This tiny mini pc makes an excellent little home media server that can run quietly out of site anywhere near a suitable network connection, for the home. It is also a capable small desktop computer to run typical basic tasks such as web browsing or messaging including email. In my case on opening the package, the first task was to boot up a Linux install system, and repartition the nvme drive, to remove the filesystems associated with Windows, including the recovery partition, and then install Arch Linux. With the appropriate storage allocated to the operating system, boot and efi areas, this still leaves around 300GB for user files, and in the future adding storage remains an option if needed. As a small home media server the system can be accessed remotely, when run as a headless computer, to update the system, and add media files for viewing on a smart TV, or phones and laptops. Having been warned from user reports of possible high temperatures, I was monitoring CPU temperatures during normal operation and they have remained barely above 30C though the cpu is not being pushed to high usage levels by the tasks I have been requiring it to perform. As a passively cooled system with no moving parts, this makes for an optimally chosen system hardware, and the external ports and ethernet work without problems, with drivers automatically in place in existing Linux current kernels. Overall I am very happy that I bought this small computer, and it does everything I need. Users who are relying on Windows may find performance may be different to when the system is using only Linux, but from my experience of this Quieter 4C it works entirely as expected.

I am super impressed with this mini PC. I followed MeLe's website and installed Windows 11 Pro on the SSD (not the eMMC part) and it runs very fast for common tasks. It can get very warm but this is compensated with the lack of noise: no fan noises is a plus for my concentration as I can often get distracted. I have tested all HDMI outputs as well as the USB-C Display port. It works as expected. Bonus point: The USB-C supports display and power so it can be plugged to a monitor that can supply both. Also that same USB-C has DP so it works with Xreal Air AR glasses and similar (Viture, Rokid). I've managed to play some light games like Minecraft and also some old classic like Command and Conquer and it was always fast and no lags, not even when it got warm. MeLe support says this is normal and we shouldn't worry with performance issues due to warming of the backplates. Glad I never experienced any issues. I recommend this device also for Astro Photography as it can be used with a usb-c powerbank that supports PD and has over 40watts.

Works brilliant when works, first one had some issues which were sorted quickly by the seller. So far had have no problem or issue. A must buy, I must say!

This is just what I was looking for. A little portable device to be able to use vscode on. I haven't benchmarked it, but it does benefit with TEMP on a ramdisk as SSD access is not the fastest. A Plus for me is that it works with the dell wd19 dock and got power from it. Once I figured it plugged it into the other usb c port.

Perfect does exactly as described thank you

I was looking for a mini pc to mount on my telescope rig for astrophotography. The MeLE is ideal as it is light, compact and runs on 12v. The processor seems fast enough to run NINA and other astro software. Overall I think it’s very good value for money.

Seemed OK although I noticed that the case became hot and distorted, which I didn't think it was supposed to do, then it locked me out! No idea why, whether it was connected to the heat/ case distortion but it failed to recognise me! Sent back for a refund & I don't think I'd consider getting this make anytime soon!

Absolutely brilliant little unit. This is replacing my old Acer Aspire 12 year old laptop running win 10 with a Q3610M I7 8 thread cpu.. I did a benchmark test and single threaded performance of the N100 is actually slightly faster than the Q3610M! if it was 8 threads it would be faster than my old I7.. crazy how good tech is now. Have this set up in my observatory and hasn't missed a beat - only thing I recommend doing is disable the USB power management in device manager otherwise Win 11 will turn off your USB devices to save power (found this out the hard way with a USB 3 2.5gbit ethernet adapter when it was dropping out after a while). Got an Arduino in one port, 2.5 gig adapter in another and then an 8 port usb 3 hub in the last port. Running SGP with PHD2 with zero issues - it just works! highly recommend this system

I recently purchased the MeLE Quieter 4C N100 with 16GB RAM and 512GB SSD, and I am incredibly impressed with its performance and sleek design. Design & Build Quality: The first thing that caught my eye was the compact and slim profile. It’s incredibly space-saving, making it perfect for my small desk setup. The fanless design is truly a game changer! It runs silently, which is a blessing when working in a quiet environment or during late-night sessions. The overall build feels solid and premium despite its small size. Performance: In terms of performance, this mini PC has exceeded my expectations. With the Intel N100 processor and 16GB of RAM, multitasking is smooth and lag-free. It handles simple tasks and local video playback without any issues, making it perfect for light office work, studying, and even becoming the go-to mini for astrophotography. Connectivity I really appreciate how this mini PC is equipped with plenty of ports, making it easy to connect all my peripherals without needing any additional adapters. User Experience: Setting up the mele Quieter 4C was a breeze. It comes preloaded with Windows 11, which runs flawlessly. The fact that it stays completely silent is a big bonus—no fan noise even when the system is under load. This has made my work environment much more peaceful. Overall, this mini PC is an amazing deal for the price. It combines powerful performance, sleek design, and the perfect quiet operation. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a compact and efficient workstation!

Good and fast considered the specs. Works perfectly as my astrophotography computer

Péssimo, não fica 3 minutos ligado e crash. Tela azul da morte.

Preso come mini PC per astrofotografia riesce a far girare tutti i software necessari senza alcun problema. Lo utilizzo con Stellarium, Nina, Green swamp server, PHD2 attivi e non fa una piega. Sicuramente non adatto per fare foto/video ritocco o gaming, ma non è ovviamente pensato per questi scopi.
