Features

A Fast PC (almost) the size of a Hard Drive

The F5 packs in an Intel Atom CPU and 1GB of RAM onto a tiny, low power board. Even with a full size desktop drive, the whole PC is just a bit bigger than a USB hard drive.

Fanless and Silent

No need for a noisy fan since the processor is passively cooled. And we’ve selected drives that are effectively silent.

Perfect for Windows Home Server

WHS is one Microsoft product we really like and we’ve engineered the F5 to be the perfect box for it – takes up no space, makes no noise, and is so low power it can be left on forever.

Ultimate Print Server

Tired of slow USB cables with a 5 meter limit? There’s no limit to network cable length and with a 10/100/1000 port the F5 is a fantastic print server.

Simply Unbreakable Chassis

With a 2.3mm thick scratch-resistant annodized aluminum shell, the F5 is our most rugged PC.

12V DC Input Lets You Work Off Grid

Though the F5 comes with a tiny AC adapter brick, it has the benefit of a 12V DC input, making it ideal for boats, cars, or solar powered classrooms.

Runs Linux, XP Vista, or Windows 7

Ubuntu 9.04 is included as standard though the F5 has been successfully tested with XP, Vista, and Windows 7 (Release Candidate).

The F5 Motherboard is absolutely tiny which means the whole PC is just a bit bigger than the desktop hard drive inside. Note: The mini SATA and power cables are always included so you’ll have no problem putting in your own drives.
