Beelink ME Mini is a compact 6-slot SSD NAS and mini PC powered by an Intel N150 Twin Lake SoC

Beelink was one of the first companies to launch an Intel Processor N150 mini PC with the EQ14 model, and they’ve now launched the ME Mini 6-slot SSD NAS based on the Twin Lake processor, coupled with 12 GB RAM, 64GB eMMC flash, and a 2TB NVMe SSD.

The compact NAS/computer also features two 2.5GbE ports, a WiFi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2 wireless module, HDMI 2.0 video output, and a few USB ports. Like the Beelink EQ14, it comes with an integrated 100/240V power supply instead of an external power brick.

Intel N150 6-slot SSD NAS

The ME Mini ships with an HDMI cable, a power cord suitable for your country (US/EU/UK/JP/AU), and a multilingual user’s manual. The system was previously unveiled in March, but there was not enough information for an article on CNX Software at the time. However, I’ve just found out about availability since Beelink has released the BIOS for both the 12GB LPDDR5 and 16GB LPDDR5 variants.

It does not look like an operating system is installed on the system, but we’re told Windows, Linux, Proxmox VE, ESXI, TrueNAS, UNRAID, KODI, JellyFin, Plex, and Emby are all supported. Lightweight systems should be installed on the eMMC flash, while larger OS like Windows 11 can be installed on SSD4 instead.

Beelink ME Mini NAS Mini PC ports

The Beelink ME Mini offers an alternative to the CWWK x86-P6 Pocket NAS and PC with Intel N150 or Core 3 N355 Twin Lake CPU, a DDR5 SO-DIMM socket that can take up to 64GB RAM, dual HDMI 2.0, dual 2.5GbE, but only four M.2 PCIe 3.0 x1 sockets for NVMe SSD storage.

Beelink is now taking orders for the Beelink ME Mini for $329 with 12GB LPDDR5 and a 2TB Crucial SSD. The 16GB model is not for sale just yet. The company also has an AliExpress store, so I’d expect the Beelink ME Mini models to be listed there shortly.
