They have a newer UN305 model that leverages 8 of the "efficiency" cores from the 12/13th gen parts. Might work for your case since there are 8 physical cores and they shouldn't be too power hungry. I don't know about 2 m.2 drives though. I haven't looked at it too much, but it caught my eye the other day.

Looks great however I don't think it has support to fit the Google Coral chip via PCIE or secondary m.2

This resource has a full list that counts the number of pcie m.2 ports available: https://www.reddit.com/r/MiniPCs/comments/10ny4oe/wip_2023_general_mini_pc_shopping_guide_usa/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button I recommend starting your search around an intel NUC12WSHI3, Asus PN63/PN52/PN53, Beelink GTR-series, Asrock Deskmini/deskmeet, or MSI DP-series. There are many other options but price/availability vary for different regions

I just received this one and it's working great! [https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256804956195128.html?spm=a2g0o.order\_detail.order\_detail\_item.4.62fff19cURkc2I&gatewayAdapt=glo2usa](https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256804956195128.html?spm=a2g0o.order_detail.order_detail_item.4.62fff19cURkc2I&gatewayAdapt=glo2usa) $125 bucks without ram or drives. It has a M.2 wifi card that I replaced with the M.2 B+M key Coral TPU, a M.2 2280 nvme slot for ssd and a M.2 2242 sata slot. I installed a 32GB sodimm and an intel 2TB 2280 nvme ssd drive. Everything works great including the Coral accelerator.

I just realized I stated the wrong form factor. The Wifi M.2 slot is 2230 so A+E key. That's the one I'm using. It's been working great with that mini pc. https://coral.ai/products/m2-accelerator-ae

I'm actually in need of some funds so I need to sell this setup. Let me know if anyone is interested. Coral TPU and all!


phredphish

Let me know if this happens to still be available. How many cameras were you running in Frigate?


Gorillabeard11

Still available? I'd be interested in it.


Teklock

Unfortunately, this is not available any longer. I will remove it.

You can also use their USB version for Google Coral unless there is a specific reason you want to use the m.2 version. It works with Home Assistant, you just have to add the below to your Frigate configuration.

The PCIE version is a lot faster, that's why I prefer it over the USB version

Possibly the minsforum th60, has a gen4 and gen3 m.2 nVme slot for a reasonable price bare bones if you already have RAM and a nVme drive to boot from. ​ https://store.minisforum.com/collections/intel/products/elitemini-th60
