FAQs
What’s the difference between a miniPC and an embedded PC?
All embedded PCs are miniPCs, but not all miniPCs are suitable for embedded use. Embedded PCs typically support specialized I/O (e.g., GPIO, COM, CAN Bus) and are built for harsh environments.
Can I customize the hardware for my project?
Absolutely. ShiMeta provides mini pc OEM services, including GPIO integration and ruggedized builds.
Can I add my own SSD or memory?
Yes. Many models offer user-accessible slots for SSDs, RAM, and M.2 modules.
