The Shuttle XPC cube Barebone SZ270R8 is able to accommodate up to four 3.5 inch hard drives which makes an overall maximum capacity of up to 64TB a reality. Ideal for both home and commercial applications. Still, there's much room for expansion in the form of two M.2 SSD for PCI-E which means transfer rates of up to 32 Gbit/s making it much faster as compared to current SATA-SSDs. The M.2 slot also supports Intel® Optane™ memory for even more acceleration. However, this barebones platform is way more than just about storage - the SH270R8 has enough grunt under its aluminium bonnet to be a high-end gaming PC or a workstation for intensive graphics or even video applications. The mainboard sports Intel's high-performance Z270 chipset that is designed for next-gen LGA 1151 "Skylake" and "Kaby Lake"processors up to the top-end Core i7 ones of the K-Series. Additionally, large dual-slot graphics cards and up to 64 GB of DDR4 memory can be fitted.
