1. No m.2 slot, only SSD. This is a significant bottleneck
2. No USB C connector
3. Only has wifi 5 (we are almost at wifi 7!)
Some other things that are normal but good to know for this price range, RAM is soldered on and the fan seems like it could be quieter.
For a few bucks more you can go with several other vendors that don't have the first 3 limitations noted above. I for one think the $20-$30 more could get you a better N100. I see why it's on sale.
During normal PC usage including boot and application start the bottleneck isn't SSD speed, it's seek latency, which is similar between PCIE ssds and even the very old now seeming SATA ssds. Difference in boot to windows is literally like two seconds.
Don't let the throughput numbers fool you. On that or the WiFi technology. WiFi 5 is totally fine for pretty much anything anyone would wanna do with this box. Don't be fooled into thinking you need stuff that you don't.

All things considered, your overall experience will likely be significantly better.
As for power consumption, if you ran both systems 24/7 for a year with constant load, the 4590T would cost an average of $110 to run, while the N100 based system would top out at around $30.
The processors themselves use 35W and 6W respectively, but I was factoring total system consumption.

By comparison you could get dell Optiplex small form factor machine with an i7, windows 10 and an ssd for 100$ on eBay that's at least 25-30% more powerful.
But the footprint of this tiny box has its use cases I guess.
Just saying there's lots of options out there.
Theres an Optiplex 5040 on eBay right now for about 100$ with an i7 6700 with windows ready to go

If you're a grandma or a non-techie, and you don't know what we are talking about, sure, save $30 by not having features that don't matter to you.
I have a large amount of data I process with my mini-PC. I don't have a hardwire to where I am running it. I like to maximize wifi connectivity and leverage the wifi 6 router I have when moving 100-200gb files across the network. I like being able plug in a USB-C thumb drive to my pc or an external m.2 SSD and not be limited by older USB standards. And if your dealing with these large files, having an M.2. drive inside the system is very helpful if you had to make a copy, night and day to older tech.
So yeah, I pointed these things out because they matter to me and they may matter to others.
