To ensure quality, I had these boxes shipped with no SSD or RAM, so I procured and installed new quality components from reputable manufacturers.
I manually configure each device. This is to ensure that it powers on, detects components, OS is successfully installed and there is a working USB and HDMI port for manual configuration.
This device is perfect for use as a PFSense or OpnSense firewall.
While I do not sell or support the OS, Installation of PFsense or OpnSense is included with your firewall purchase at no additional cost.
This model comes with PFSense 2.7 by default.
If you would like OpnSense installed, please let me know when ordering.
