Entry-level platform for Intel's 8th/9th Gen. "Coffee Lake" processors The Shuttle XPC cube Barebone SH310R4 supports the 8th and 9th generation of Intel Core desktop processors ("Coffee Lake") for socket LGA1151v2, up to 32 GB memory, two 4K displays at 60 Hz via DisplayPort and HDMI 2.0, high-performance M.2 SSDs and up to four USB 3.0 devices. The SH310R4 can be expanded with a high-performance graphics card for demanding applications while the second PCIe-X1-slot can be used for other expansion cards. WLAN and COM port can be additionally installed as well. The SH310R4 comes with a built-in 80 PLUS power supply and Shuttle's I.C.E. heatpipe cooling which means it is energy-efficient and ready for long-term operation. For a personal look and feel, the front panel can be customised by adding individual designs. HDMI 2.0 The enhanced version of the popular HDMI standard permits even higher screen resolutions. 4K playback in resolutions of 3.840x2.160 and above promise breathtakingly sharp details. And the audio signal is of course still transmitted via the same cable – creating fewer cables. High-resolution DisplayPort The DisplayPort connector allows for connections with digital high-resolution displays. Besides picture signal, DisplayPort cables can also lead digital sounds signals in excellent quality. Rapid system and program start-up thanks to NVMe support SSDs are already very fast compared to hard disks. But what is possible thanks to M.2 modules with PCIe Express technology really takes your breath away. The NVMe modules process several gigabytes per second and thus ensure the system starts up in just a few seconds with noticeably shorter program start-up times. The fastest connection to external peripheral devices available to date The USB 3.0 connectors of this model allow for data transfer of up to 5 Gbit/s (625 MB/s). This enables external devices such as USB hard disks to be connected and run at nearly the same speed as their internal siblings. USB 3.0 is downward compatible so that also devices of previous USB generations can be hooked up. Generous supply of USB ports You can never have enough of those versatile USB ports. This Shuttle Mini-PC offers 8 ports, with further ports for internal expansions located on the mainboard. 6-channel audio With the inbuilt sound card you can connect up to six speakers. Get your own personal surround-sound experience at home. Communication in the fast lane The integrated gigabit LAN chipset opens up completely new possibilities for communication with no restriction on the speed of data transfer. Say goodbye to information bottlenecks, whether in the company network or for home Internet access. Intelligent fan control The Smart Fan system promises low operating noise with its large, slowly rotating fans, which generate a very large airflow and have automatic variable speed control. Pre-assembled cabling saves time The most important power and data cables are already routed and just have to inserted into the relevant components. This saves valuable time when setting up the system. Intel chipset inside Play it safe with the reliable chipsets from the world's largest chip manufacturer. Intel chipsets have proven themselves over many years, have been presented with awards by the trade press and offer the best possible degree of compatibility. You can rely on SSD This is where an energy-saving "Solid State Drive" should be used. This drive technology guarantees extremely short access times, the highest data transmission rates and considerably lower energy consumption compared to conventional hard disks. SSDs have no mechanical components at all, are therefore subject to less wear and tear and consequently benefit from a longer service life. For a longer life and more system stability All the components of the highly integrated mainboard of this PC are fitted with modern solid capacitors, which offer six times the lifespan of normal capacitors. Intelligent cooling Shuttle's patented Heatpipe Cooling technology with variable speed control automatically ensures maximum system stability and quiet operation in this aluminium Shuttle Mini-PC. Instead of swirling around the chassis, as is the case with conventional solutions, the warm air is specifically transferred out of the chassis. The interface for the fastest of memory media Internal drives to be used inside this Mini-PC can transfer data at a speed of up to 6 Gbit/s. Hard drives thus run significantly faster and brand-new media technologies such as SSDs can use their full potential. Be sure to look for SATA 6 Gbit/s. Dual-slot graphic cards? No problem! The creative engineers at Shuttle have worked out how to fit large and incredibly powerful dual-slot graphics cards into this compact PC. The special dimensions of the cards and the unusual fan size cause no problems at all in this Mini-PC. PCI Express technology A fast X16-PCI-E slot enables the use of modern 3D graphics cards and other expansion cards that have to transfer huge amounts of data at ultra-rapid speeds. Space for two hard disks This Mini-PC chassis provides plenty of space for two 3.5" HDDs that provide many Terabytes of memory. The generous ventilation between the drives ensures there is no build-up of heat.
