Yaeh. I struggle with thos U-fl connectors too. I purchased two I-PEX 90435-001 MHF-4 CONNECTOR PUSH & PULL TOOL
As I mentioned earlier, I have it running from last month without any issue.
I'm running 2x 4tb ssds in a ZFS mirror on the PCIE 4x and 2x slot. In my case since it is a zfs mirror, speed will be based in the 2x slot.
If you run it separately, you get the full speed.
To me there wasnt a scenario that i would had ZFS or Raid inside this tiny box. For this reason you get an HBA and an external enclosure and you are faster, safer and with less heat.
The reasons i bought personally this machine was the intel SFP+ Slots and the Power Usage of this little thing with a good CPU. Extra bonus was the 96GB of RAM that ok it would had been better if it was ECC but we cannot have it all at once, can we?

Do you set to the VM's which cores to use or you have it free?Mine having serious issues with regular CPU lockups under Proxmox 8.1.4 and kernel 6.5.13-1 ... having latest microcode installed 0x411c doesn't change anything.
unless I disable E-cores
Someone having similar issues?
Working as expected following vGPU (SR-IOV) with Intel 12th Gen iGPU [Updated Nov 2023]
Just ensure to have sysfsutils installed on the host.
So I've been using SR-IOV iGPU on both Windows and LinuxMint VM -- Windows VM video rendering is flawless but LinuxMint or Ubuntu for that matter struggles a bit. I wonder if this could be sysfsutils? What happens if you don't use it?
For the record, I do have i915 SR-IOV module running on LinuxMint's host and the host is able to recognize the iGPU.
No, you won't get video on HDMI video with SR-IOV like passthrough. For HDMI video, you'll have to do full passthrough, which is limited to just one VM.

Of my orders thus far, I am getting a projected shipping of late March on the direct from MinisForum path.
Why they chose to not fulfill local orders and dump the pre-Chinese New Year production run into Amazon isn't clear, probably there wasn't going to be anyone staffed in fulfillment during the holiday and let Amazon do it for them through their virtual warehouse.
Since they charge the card immediately on early-bird and pre-orders before actual fulfillment occurs, I would imagine they are using these orders as part of financing their production run with their fab/assembly partners.
The MS-01 and BD/AR series ITX boards are not standard fare for them like their "one size fits many" mini-PC format.
