Mini pc for TrueNAS?

[DMD]

Good morning.
I intend to install TrueNAS on a mini pc to drive HDD boxes.
On Amazion I saw that there are mini PCs equipped with Intel Celeron N4020 cpu, can it be suitable for the purpose?
Thank you

What do you mean by "HDD boxes"? If you mean external drives such as in USB enclosures, this is not supported and is unlikely to work well.

The N4020 tops out at 8GB RAM, which is the absolute minimum amount of RAM for TrueNAS, so you could potentially be making a very expensive mistake if it turns out you need 16GB RAM.

You're right, not if you want to find another more performing mini pc or build a minitx yourself
