Wonder why they went MSata over M.2?
Probably because mSATA drives are currently cheaper and more widely available than M.2 drives.Quote:

Don't see a mention of a IR remote port at the front like interl's, that's a pity.
I use an original Microsoft WMC remote with my HTPC NUC all the time and it works great. Plus it does not take up a USB port.
Personally, given their specs, they are not high end machines. I think that for a NUC there is no real need for high end storage at the moment like a M2, especially as msata is quite cheap for what you can get. Any decent msata should work fine.
And if I need some speed, I would just use Primo ramdisk on my 16GB, I already have this loaded for all my temp files, photo work, etc.
Don't need one when you have bluetoothQuote:

Pretty pointless without the price to compare against NUC/Brix systems but then it will be fairly similar in price I suppose, given the SOC costs are the biggest costs.
