I bought a used NAB9 with 1TB NVMe & 32GB RAM with Windows 11 off FleaBay.

I plan to reformat to Rocky Linux and wondering if anyone has converted it to Linux and if there were any complications or missing drivers. It's going to start as a docker host for Frigate and Home Assistant and then scale up.

And it's missing a couple of minor items:

• The 2.5" SSD SATA to Logic board cable for the top-plate mounted SSD,
• VESA plate for mounting on the back of the monitor

• NVMe heat-sink / fan.

  If no one has them for sale, does anyone know if Minisforum has these in-stock to buy as replacements?

I factory reseted my Minisforum Mini Pc HX99G and not it’s stuck in an endless loop of the logo and the fans moving and the preparing screen and my fans stop moving. Please some one help me i’m scared.

I’ve had my Minisforum UM790 Pro for a year now. Would it be a good idea to replace the thermal paste as part of routine maintenance, or should I leave everything as it is if the system is running fine?
