Running Fedora 28 on an Intel NUC7i3BNH
The NUC comes without RAM and storage with the following specs:
- Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-7100U Processor @ 2.4GHz
- 1 x Gigabit ethernet interface (Intel)
- 1 x Dual Band Wi-Fi (Intel)
- 1 x Bluetooth 4.2
- 4 x USB 3.0 ports
- 1 x USB 3.1 / DisplayPort via USB Type-C Connector
- 1 x HDMI port
- 1 x Combined audio port
- 1 x Consumer Infrared Sensor
- 1 x Micro SDXC Card Reader
- DMICS Digital Microphone Array
To which I added:
- 2 x Crucial 8GB DDR4 2400 MT/s PC4-19200 SRx8, 260-Pin SODIMMs
- 1 x 120GB Kingston 2.5" SATA 3 SSD
I just moved the SSD from the BRIX into the NUC.

Issues
Overall everything seems to work fine, with just one minor exception with the
Wi-Fi.
I don't use the Wi-Fi but just tried it out and saw that it would quickly stop
working. Turned out to be due to my AP running in 40MHz mode, switching it back
to its default of 20MHz seemed to fix that.
See here for one possible explanation.
