A 2.5-inch HDD or SSD can fit within the mini-PC’s bulkier model, and both sizes can accept M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 SSDs in addition to up to 64 GB of DDR4-3200 RAM.
Along with numerous vPro options, Intel has also revealed that it will sell the NUC 13 Pro with the Core i3-1315U, Core i5-1340P, Core i5-1350P, Core i7-1360P, or Core i7-1370P CPUs. Although the Core i7-1370P has a 40W TDP (PL1), the cooling system of the NUC 13 Pro should be able to manage its 64W PL2 rating.One of the NUC 13 Pro’s outstanding features is its commitment to sustainability. The mini-PC is a very environmentally responsible option because it employs 75% post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastic, according to Intel.
