So small but so strong!

This AWOW Mini PC is the perfect solution to our dilemma. We have our entire video library on an external hard drive. The only problem was that we can't easily access it. In order to watch a movie on the drive, we must first decide which movie we want to watch. Then copy it to your tablet. Then connect the tablet to HDMI on your TV. A rather painful process, since the space on the tray is limited. After a lot of research, we decided to buy a "mini PC" as a solution to the problem. It took me a few days to settle on this AWOW mini pc. We're glad we did. Here's what I've found so far: - This AWOW mini pc has every convenience. Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, 6 gigabytes of RAM and 128 gigabytes of internal hard drive. It also has room for an optional 2.5-inch SATA hard drive. There's even a micro SD card slot. All in a 4 1/2 inch square. There are 5 (yes, 5) USB 3.0 ports. We are currently using 2.1 for the USB dongle that controls the mouse and keyboard. And 1 for an external hard drive. We also used the other 3 USB ports (mainly for testing) to transfer files to and from the PC and to an external hard drive. You don't have to disconnect your external drive to add more media. There are 2 HDMI ports. They go to monitors, televisions or other devices. We set it to stereo so that surround sound can be used. There are also 2 LAN ports. They are designed to be used in place of Wi-Fi. There is a built-in fan to protect against overheating. This was one of the main deciding factors in choosing this particular mini PC. And you don't even hear the fan! - It runs on Windows 10. You can do everything you can do on a regular PC on this AWOW Mini PC. It's fun to watch YouTube videos on the big screen. This is a REAL computer. It's just very, very small. If you're looking for a powerful PC in a tiny package, then this AWOW mini PC is for you. When we bought it it was in Today's Deals. In this case, however, we are happy to pay the full price. Even the full price is extremely reasonable for all you get. *** Please note: I did not receive a discount for my review. I bought this product at the price listed.***
