​​Optimization Tips​​

• Upgrade RAM to ​​16GB​​ to handle Windows multitasking. Prioritize ​​NVMe SSD​​ installation for faster system responsiveness

II. Linux Systems: Top Choice for Development & Lightweight Use​​

​​Recommended Distributions​​

• ​​Ubuntu 22.04 LTS​​: Kernel ≥5.15 ensures full compatibility with N100’s Alder Lake-N architecture. Comprehensive driver support (including dual RTL8111H NICs).
• ​​Fedora Workstation 38+​​: Newer kernel (≥6.2) optimizes performance for modern hardware, ideal for developers

​​Use Case Scenarios​​

• ​​Server/Router Applications​​: Dual NICs enable soft routing (OpenWRT/pfSense), NAS, or PXE diskless systems.
• ​​Development Environment​​: Runs Docker, Python, and tools smoothly with minimal resources (2–4GB RAM)

​​Installation Optimization​​

• Disable ​​Secure Boot​​ and enable ​​AHCI mode​​ in BIOS. Verify Wi-Fi 6 module drivers.
• Allocate ​​≥32GB to root partition​​ (NVMe SSD). Mount /home to a SATA SSD for expanded storage

III. Dedicated Systems: Embedded & Media Center Solutions​​

​​Lightweight Media Centers​​

• ​​LibreELEC/Kodi​​: Linux-based minimal OS optimized for 4K/HDR playback with ultra-low resource usage.
• ​​Android TV x86​​: Supports touchscreens (if attached) and streaming apps (Netflix/YouTube)

​​Industrial & Embedded Use​​

• ​​Yocto Linux​​: Wide-temperature operation (-10°C to +60°C) for industrial control or IoT gateways.
• ​​Proxmox VE​​: Virtualization platform to host Windows VMs and Linux containers, leveraging dual NICs and storage

​​IV. System Selection & Optimization Guide​​

Recomended Working Environment

​I. Home & Office Scenarios​​

1. ​​Daily Office & Remote Collaboration​​
   Document processing, video conferencing, web browsing, and other basic tasks. Leverages ​​low-power silent design (10-15W)​​ and ​​rich I/O ports​​ (dual HDMI + DP supporting ​​triple 4K@60Hz display​​) to enhance efficiency.
   ​​Representative models​​: Intel N100-based devices (e.g., ​​Beelink EQ13​​), ideally paired with ​​NVMe SSD​​ for faster response

2. ​​Home Entertainment Hub​​
   Connects to TVs/projectors for ​​4K HDR video playback​​ (e.g., LibreELEC OS). ​​Fanless design​​ ensures no interference during viewing

3. ​​Casual Gaming & E-Learning​​
   Smoothly runs lightweight games (e.g., League of Legends, Genshin Impact at 1080P medium settings) or serves as an e-learning terminal. AMD Ryzen models (e.g., ​​Beelink SER8​​) deliver ​​60-90 FPS​​ performance

 ​​II. Development & Server Applications​​

1. ​​Development & Testing Environments​​
   Ubuntu/Fedora systems support ​​Docker​​, ​​Python​​, and other tools. Runs smoothly with ​​2-4GB RAM​​. ​​Dual Ethernet ports​​ (e.g., RTL8111H) facilitate local server cluster setup

2. ​​Lightweight Server Deployment​​
   Functions as ​​software router (OpenWRT)​​, ​​NAS storage​​, or ​​firewall (pfSense)​​. ​​PXE diskless boot​​ and ​​dual 2.5G Ethernet ports​​ optimize network throughput.
