Compact Xeon Workstation

The Partaker B18 is a barebone mini PC built around an Intel Xeon E-2286M processor with eight cores and sixteen threads. It ships with 16GB of DDR4-2666 memory and a 512GB SSD installed, plus Windows 11 Pro for immediate deployment. The 134×144×64mm chassis weighs 1.05kg and includes a 100W power supply.

Virtualisation and HTPC Ready

This unit suits buyers who need ECC memory support, Intel vPro manageability and dual Gigabit LAN for server or network appliance roles. It also fits home-theater setups requiring dual 4K@60Hz outputs via DP 1.2 and HDMI 2.0. Buyers who want more storage bays than the three M.2 slots and single 2.5-inch bay provide should look elsewhere.

Memory and Storage Headroom

The two SODIMM slots accept up to 64GB of DDR4 with ECC, giving ample headroom for virtual machines. Storage expands through two PCIe 3.0 x4 NVMe M.2 slots, one additional M.2 slot supporting NVMe or SATA, and a 2.5-inch bay for SATA drives. The 45W TDP processor and smart silent fan maintain stable 24/7 operation within the compact enclosure.

Questions about this item

What display cables do I need for the DP 1.2 and HDMI 2.0 ports to get 4K at 60 Hz?

Use a DisplayPort 1.2 cable for the DP port and an HDMI 2.0 cable for the HDMI port; both support 4K at 60 Hz without adapters.

Will my existing DDR4-2666 SODIMM modules work if I expand the two slots up to 64 GB?

Yes, the board accepts DDR4-2666 SODIMMs and supports ECC memory, so compatible modules will run at the rated speed in either slot.

How can I confirm the Intel I219-V and Realtek RTL8111 LAN ports are active after setup?

Check Device Manager for both adapters without errors, then verify link lights on each RJ45 port and run a ping test through each interface.
