Ultra-compact AirJet mini PC

The ZOTAC ZBOX pico PI430AJ-GLB is a 0.21 litre barebone system cooled by a solid-state AirJet module that produces 1750 pascals of back-pressure without any moving parts. An Intel Core i3-N300 processor with eight cores and eight threads runs at a base frequency of .8 GHz and can reach 3.8 GHz. Eight gigabytes of LPDDR5 memory are soldered to the board and Intel UHD Graphics drives up to three displays at 4K resolution and 60 Hz via HDMI 2.0, DisplayPort 1.4 and DP over USB-C.

Verify storage and OS before purchase

This unit ships with no storage and no operating system installed. You must supply an M.2 NVMe PCIe 3.0 x4 or SATA SSD and install your preferred OS. The board provides a single M.2 slot, so only one drive can be fitted. Connectivity includes 1 Gbps wired LAN, Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2, plus three USB 3.2 ports (one Type-C) on the front and a 2-in-1 card reader.

Replaces fan-cooled mini PCs when silence is

The AirJet cooler eliminates fans entirely, making the system suitable for noise-sensitive locations such as bedrooms, recording spaces or digital-signage mounts where any audible airflow is unacceptable. Buyers who need more than one M.2 drive, discrete graphics or user-upgradeable memory should look elsewhere, as the design fixes memory at 8 GB and offers only a single storage slot.

Questions about this item

Does the ZBOX-PI430AJ-GLB include an M.2 SSD or must I supply my own NVMe or SATA drive?

The unit ships with no storage installed. You need to add one M.2 2280 drive — either NVMe PCIe 3.0 x4 or SATA — to have a bootable system.

The spec sheet lists a single M.2 slot supporting both NVMe PCIe 3.0 x4 and SATA; which type should I pick for best performance?

Choose an NVMe PCIe 3.0 x4 SSD for noticeably faster boot and application load times; SATA works but is limited to the older interface speed.

With the Core i3-N300 rated up to 3.8 GHz and only 0.21 litres of volume, will the AirJet cooling sustain that speed under load?

The solid-state AirJet module delivers 1750 Pa back-pressure, actively removing heat without fans so the processor can hold higher frequencies longer than passive designs.
