Recommended Posts

The manufacturer Topton sells through AliExpress for just over 330 euros, the N9 model, a motherboard in mini-ITX format with 8 2.5 G Ethernet ports.

Up to 8 Ethernet ports
Topton is a veteran manufacturer of mini PCs, motherboards and laptops and with the N9 model it wants to reach home users who want to build their own NAS since it offers connectivity possibilities that we will not find in any other model.

These prices are without heatsink. If we want it with a heatsink, we have to add another 20 euros more. This is actually the same as a heatsink costs, so it is worth paying the 20 euros it costs with it already assembled, especially if our computer knowledge is limited.

This board includes 2 slots for DDR4 SO-DIMM memory and an M.2 port with 2280 form factor and a SATA 3 port for storage drives.

As for connectivity options, leaving aside the 8 Ethernet ports, it has 3 USB 3.0 type A ports, one USB-C port. It also includes an M.2 slot with 2230 form factor to add a wireless card, since the 8 Ethernet ports are not enough. It does not include any PCIe slot to add an external graphics card, so we will have to settle for the Intel HD Graphics 630 or the Radeon RX Vega solution.

It includes two HDMI ports and two jack ports, one microphone input and one headphone output. This board only requires a 4-pin connector and a DC connector of a minimum of 150W.
