Forgot to mention, the NUC6i3SYH I'm using is a Skylake based NUC.

Hello,

I'm happily using an Intel NUC6i3SYH with Crucial 32GB RAM and a Crucial MX300 2.5 525GB inch SSD:

- Intel NUC6 CoreTM i3-6100U 2.3 GHz - https://www.amazon.fr/gp/product/B018NSAPIM <https://www.amazon.fr/gp/product/B01IAGSD68/> - Crucial 525GB SSD - CT525MX300SSD1 - https://www.amazon.fr/gp/product/B01IAGSD68/ - Crucial 32GB RAM - CT2K16G4SFD824A -https://www.amazon.fr/gp/product/B019FRCV9G <https://www.amazon.fr/gp/product/B019FRCV9G>

All works well for almost 1 year now, I'm currently running on release 20170511T001921Z and tried several different releases before without any issues.

Unfortunately, I've no experience with the M2 SATA/PCIe drive.

Hi Bryan,

thx for the link, did you actually check that the 6 gen NUCs work as the issue 
727 states that sky lakes are affected as well.
I had previously tested on what I thought was a Skylake based NUC, but
I'll have to go back and confirm that.

i've received a few off-list responses in addition to the one below, and i 
appreciate them all!
i've dismissed these in the past for multiple reasons, and after seeing usb3 
supported wanted to
reconsider. unfortunately, it looks like the newer ones are still unusable for 
a different reason.

i'd really like something lab-worthy that can run head node and provision to 
itself, and potentially
capable of production-ish use at my home office. i already have that, but the 
hardware is older
and quite power-hungry, so i'm looking at the newer green-ish alternatives.

any other suggestions? i've looked hard at the supermicro 5028D-TN4T (looks 
like freenas-mini)
which sports the normal good stuff (ipmi and plenty of ecc ram) but it's not 
cheap. i've also looked
at their tiny boxes (eg. SYS-E200-8D), thinking i could potentially leverage 
iscsi for zone/kvm
secondary data volumes (not boot volumes) but haven't really researched whether 
that is an
option. i know smartos doesn't support network storage, but this would be the 
zone/kvm os
using a network protocol - if samba works (it does) i figure iscsi at least has 
a chance.

thoughts?

The one I picked allows for one M2 and one more 2.5" drive AFAIK.

thanks for that!

do all the NUCs max out at 16GB memory?
do any allow dual drives?

You can refer to my NUC BoM list.

It includes notes about which parts are compatible with which NUCs.

Hi,

I’m getting together a home SmartOS box in form of intel NUC (NUC 5I7RYH) but 
I'm still debating the drive, is the M2 SATA/PCIe drive supported or do I need 
to use the 2.5 inch SATA drive for zones pool?

Did someone try this one from 
crucial?http://www.crucial.com/usa/en/storage-ssd-mx300  (P/N: CT275MX300SSD4)

Thx, for any pointers, cheers

-Jan

P.S. I went through the works for me wiki section but I couldn’t find out if 
someone is using the M2 drives :(
