Deal Details
The GMKtec G9 Mini PC NAS Intel N150 Dual Boot System 12GB DDR5 64GB EMMC +512GB SSD Desktop Computer 4*M.2 NVMe Slots/Dual NIC 2.5GbE/ USB-C USB 3.2 10Gbps/ Network Attached Storage is on sale for $185 after 12% discount that appears when adding to cart.

This beats the price of the other recently posted deal for this system (different listing for the same product, although that one is the "revised" version that's basically the same but being sold for more): https://slickdeals.net/f/18397486-230-99-gmktec-g9-mini-pc-nas-n150-12gb-ddr5-64gb-emmc-512gb-ssd-at-amazon

This is priced higher than many other N150 systems, but as a small device with 4 NVME slots, it has uses as a capable all flash NAS or other system. It has well-known heat issues, but they might be partially addressable (https://www.reddit.com/r/MiniPCs/...gmktec_g9/) and not an issue for some people.

For those concerned about the heat issue (described more in detail here: https://www.reddit.com/r/MiniPCs/...uired_any/), there are ways to 3D print a stand to include a fan. For example: https://www.reddit.com/r/HomeServ...are_button

Nice deal! I have one and I've been using m.2 to SATA x6 adapters to run HDDs.

That's one of the benefits of this little machine. With that adapter, there are still slots for a few NVMe drives. I'm looking at doing just what you described to use this as a second unRAID machine for backups.

I was wondering if you mind sharing the link to the n.2 to SATA adapter you are using. And which M.2 slot did you put use it on? I am not sure if it matters or not. And if you don't mind me asking, are you running Truenas? Or other OS? Thanks.

I bought some cheap adapters from AliExpress but I've seen this one recommended on YT https://a.co/d/7mdVF9U
Currently I have 2 adapters (slot 3 & 4) with 12 HDDs and a 128gb nvme (slot 1) for proxmox, ARRs and a DSM VM for NAS. I have everything in an old ATX PC case with a PSU to power the fans and HDDs. The restrictions are that there's only 2 pcie lanes for the 4 m.2 slots and I think those are also tied to the ethernet ports. Also cannot upgrade the ram but I have a couple other NUCs for other services.
