## Description

Product description

Review: Excellent Support - Replacement Quickly Sent After Unit Failed - I purchased this MS-01 on February 20, 2025, and after a few months of use, the unit suddenly failed to power on. At first, I suspected a power supply issue, but after some testing, it became clear the problem was with the device itself. Despite the hardware failure, I have to highlight how exceptional the customer support was. They responded quickly, walked me through the troubleshooting process, and sent a replacement unit without any hassle. The new device is working perfectly. Overall, while I did experience a failure, the quality of support and the way the issue was handled gave me confidence in the product and the company. All the support and assistance were invaluable.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A great product despite having issues.
*by R***N on September 7, 2025*

I wanted to give my experience wit Minisforum. I had purchased the # MS-01-S1260 back in early June to replace one of my old "shoebox" Proxmox hosts, stuck in a bunch of HDs and 96gb ram and it was working wonderfully. Six weeks in, I had even ordered a second to replace the other host. I powered the first down to move it from a temporary location to it's home. It wouldn't boot. Wouldn't power on. After spending most of a day playing, reading reddit posts, and doing the standard trouble shooting stuff, I gave in and opened a case with Minisforum. I traded emails for a few days. Pictures. Videos. The lag mainly due to our time difference (I am in NY). I the end they did replace the device. I had to send mine into the warehouse in California and the sent me a replacement via Amazon. Dealing with support was painless despite the time lag. I am in IT for 30 years and have more painful RMAs dealing with big companies and 24/7 support. AND even though I had issues, I would recommend the product. It's well thought out and put together. The form factor only has one downside. Heat. Recommendation, If you not going to use the SFP ports, turn them off in the BIOS. This will help with heat and power. Do a google search and you will find plenty of BIOS tweaks to meet your needs. The MS-01 makes a great home server or workstation. If your looking for a gaming PC, look elsewhere. The half height PCI slot and heat mitigation will not work in your favor. Minis has other slightly larger and newer offerings (as do others). Thank you Minisforum PS - If anybody is interested, My Proxmox cluster is 2 x MS-01 (96gb ram, 240gb boot & 2 x 2tb drives for CEPH & 2.5gb for production and 2.5gb for CEPH) with a Mini PC Stick S100 as the 3rd node & witness for HA. The Mini PC Stick S100 is powered over POE on the "camera" switch and will be one of the last to go in a power event. With this in mind, it also runs a backup Pihole LXC.
