Set up a mini PC with one some months ago as a home media box (with Kodi on Lubuntu) in my living room, which also works as a NAS and Torrent client over always on VPN.
CPU usage tends to be below 10% and you almost never hear the fan on the box turn on.
All this on a machine with a TDP of 15W.
I’d say the N100 is massivelly overpowered to be used just as a NAS.
I’m interested to hear what you think of the n100.
I’ve been running my home server on an N100 for like 10 months or so.
I love it. It’s a little workhorse that just sips power.
Same here.

I’ll run some other stuff on it too, like Jellyfin.
