Beelink SER9 Max Review and Proxmox 10 Gig Mini PC Giveaway
In this video I put the Beelink SER9 Max through real home lab testing to see if it deserves a spot in your 2025 setup. This mini PC brings something that is still rare even today, a native 10 gigabit Ethernet port, along with DDR5 memory support, PCIe 4.0 NVMe storage, dual M.2 slots, and AMD’s newer Ryzen 7 H255 FP8 platform. I walk through performance, thermals, noise, power consumption, and how it behaves as a Proxmox VE node. AND I am giving it away!!!
