Internal structure
The base can be easily removed by loosening the four screws in the middle of the rubber feet on the underside. Ideally, this is done in the direction of the front so that the thin connection cable is not damaged.
This is responsible for connecting the 2.5″ SATA drive bay. A passive heat sink for the M.2 SSD was also integrated at the same time and connected via a somewhat small thermal pad.
In my sample, 3200 Mhz DDR4 memory from Lexar was installed, model LD4S08G32C22ST-HGN. The memory is provided by Kingston, here in the form of an OM8SEP4512Q-A01 M.2 NVMe 4.0 SSD. Removing this reveals the permanently integrated WLAN card. This is an Intel AX201, which supports Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) and Bluetooth 5.2.
What surprised me a little was the chip behind the LAN port. An Intel Ethernet controller I225-V is installed here, which supports 2.5 GbE according to the data sheet. However, this feature does not appear at all on the NUC’s sales pages, which are still available. Perhaps a secret upgrade at a later date?
