[SOLVED] How fast are USB ports on a Hunsn mini PC

[andrewsc]

I'm considering buying a mini PC to serve as a bridge between cheap USB drives and my Ethernet at home. Also to drive two monitors when I work remotely. Having Windows 10 preloaded is an advantage. This looks just right:

But I'm becoming cautious, after exploring the NAS market. Those devices run Linux internally, and their USB pprts are typically slow. Everyone complains about that.

What are the experiences with the USB speeds on mini PCs ? I'm looking for anything reasonable, not necessarily outstanding. A separate question: has anyone used mini PCs from this Hunsn brand?

THere's big difference between NAS's and PCs. You should not be concerned about USB performance of that PC, especially for intended purpose. I'd be rather worried about dual-monitor support, and CPU performance.

Thanks for warning me. The device has two Hdmi ports and dual monitor is mentioned in the blurb. My remote work involves mostly text. No fancy graphics, but the screens still need to be refreshed promptly. Indeed, Intel Integrated Graphics doesn't have the best reputation in terms of speed. Any alternatives?

You don't need fancy graphics if all you'll do is RDP.
