### ⭐⭐⭐ 3.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Great system and an ideal choice for future pfSense 2.5 AES-NI requirement
  

*by W***R on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 11 April 2018*

UPDATE: 11-04-2018I've had to drop the review from 5 to 3 stars because I've just discovered after installing pfSense that the NICs are manufactured by Realtek, not Intel, as stated in the product description. This is an issue covered under the Consumer Rights Act 2015. I am in communication with the seller on this matter. This is disappointing as I would not have purchased if I knew the NICs were not manufactured by Intel. At low traffic levels, this may not be an issue for many people but a) higher loads may have errors and b) the point is, I was led to believe that this device contained Intel NICs.I was looking at hardware options in respect to getting a security appliance that would satisfy Netgate's future pfSense (version 2.5) requirement for AES-NI. This system (Pico PC MNHO-048) is ideal as it meets that requirement with an Intel Atom E3845 quad-core CPU. I wanted a small footprint system and this is an all-metal, passively cooled box that is widely used by other vendors (Protectli in the USA, for example) and I can see why. The case and power supply are barely luke-warm to the touch and the system (running pfSense in my case) barely goes above 40 degree celsius at rest. The four NICs are genuine Intel, so no worries there.I'd never heard of Pondesk before, but after a glitch (which was my fault and instantly fixed), I was impressed by their online customer support. The system documentation is also good: the product datasheet contains typical "real world" performance stats on this box running pfSense; Untangle; Sophos; Zentyal and Vyos firewall operating systems. Pondesk even describe how Intel NICs perform better than Realtek chipsets.I purchased the bare-bones option, and I added an existing 128 GB mSATA drive and 8GB Crucial 1.35v DDR3L RAM you can get here 
  
Crucial CT102464BF160B 8 GB (DDR3L, 1600 MT/s, PC3L-12800, SODIMM, 204-Pin) Memory







  
  
     8 GB is the maximum RAM you can install, but that's no problem for a home/SOHO environment as even with multiple pfSense packages running, I doubt it will ever max out. For my installation, I have no use for the included WiFi card (comes supplied with dipoles), but it's nice to have.I have previously built multiple pfSense systems, from various home-brew and off the shelf hardware, and I'm very impressed with this product so far.

    Brilliant Piece of Kit
  

*by S***H on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 12 March 2019*

Have been using this box now for a month now and  I must say that I am pretty happy with the performance of the device.To start off, I purchased the device without RAM or storage. So installing them was very straight forward, obviously, one need to have basic knowledge perhaps from a similar activity in the past.On installation, one thing that I completed missed is that the box does not have a VGA input, therefore had to order a VGA to HDMI cable for my old monitor.Once connected, the device booted flawlessly from pFsense USB and I continued to install pfSense. In less than 15 mins, device was ready to rock and roll.Just for clarity, I added 8GB RAM and 40GB mSATA on the device.Can confirm that the device does have intel ports.  In terms of the device temperature,  early days still, also depends on the processing load. So far, the device seems to have maintained a constant temperature.Based on stats presented by pfSense, I can say that the device is quick and definitely fast in terms of churning packets out even when all devices are behind VPN.Very satisfied with my purchase so far.

    Extremely satisfied
  

*by F***A on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 27 May 2018*

I recently purchased this Pondesk Mini PC (MNHO-048) from Amazon and I am really contented with the purchase. I had a few doubts though earlier after reading one of the reviews regarding the NICs not being original Intel ones which was quite shocking for me. As the product is quite unique and exactly what I have been looking for, so I tried searching on the internet about the brand and found all 5 star google reviews (which then gave a little boost and confident about them). I then tried to contact Pondesk directly through their website on the chat available and to my surprise, they were very helpful and patient. They tried to clear all my doubts and sent me email with all relevant proofs about the genuinity of Intel® Gigabit Ethernet Controller I211-AT. I finally got convinced and purchased it and currently using it as Untangle Firewall and its just perfect. All I can say is that I own a device which could be used with not one firewall but with most of them and that makes it one of a kind! Totally happy with this little monster from Pondesk!
