Compact desktop for everyday work

The Dell OptiPlex 3060 SFF is a small form factor desktop built around an Intel Core i5-8600K running at 3.60 GHz with six cores. It ships with 8GB of DDR4 memory and a new 240GB SSD for the operating system and files. Integrated Intel UHD Graphics 630 handles display output. A 16X DVD±RW drive, gigabit Ethernet and a new USB Wi-Fi adapter are included along with a new USB keyboard and mouse.

Suits office tasks not OS-free systems

This system suits students and home office users who want a ready-to-use compact PC for documents, web browsing and video calls. Buyers who need a pre-installed operating system should look elsewhere because the unit ships with no operating system. Anyone requiring a dedicated graphics card or more than 8GB of memory will need a different configuration.

240GB SSD capacity

The single specification that decides fit is the new 240GB SSD. It sets the total local storage available for the operating system, applications and personal data. Users with large media libraries or multiple virtual machines will find this capacity limiting and should consider a larger drive.

Questions about this item

Does the Gigabit Ethernet port cap real-world throughput below 1 Gbps?

The integrated Gigabit Ethernet controller supports up to 1 Gbps; actual speeds depend on your switch, cabling and network load.

What internal space is required to add a second drive in the SFF chassis?

The Small Form Factor case has one 3.5-inch bay and one 2.5-inch bay; the 240GB SSD occupies one slot, leaving the other free for an additional drive.

How is the USB Wi-Fi adapter installed, and what step is often missed?

Plug the adapter into any free USB port, then install the driver from the manufacturer's website before expecting a wireless connection.
