Great Deal as a Zoneminder Server
I recently purchased a used, reconditioned Dell Optiplex 9020 Small Form Factor Desktop with Intel Core i7-4770 from Amazon. The reconditioning took place in a plant in Canada. I am very pleased with the performance of this computer and the ease of setup. I chose this system from Amazon after comparing it with other refurbishers because of Prime shipping.I had been running Zoneminder on a Raspberry Pi 4 to process the video from 4 cameras and store the footage on a 6 TB external Hard drive. That system struggled and I finally decided to upgrade. The newest Raspberry Pi seemed expensive, so I decided to look at used Intel boxes. I found this system on Amazon for less than the cost of a Pi and with a free keyboard and mouse. Seemed a great bargain.When the system arrived, it had Windows 10 Pro installed. I did not want to destroy that. I was able to shrink the partition on the 1 TB hard drive and install Debian as a dual boot operating system. The process was made easier by the fact that the drive came formatted using the GUID partition table (GPT). I installed Grub to manage the boot process, which was a breeze after I figured out that I needed to change the BIOS boot process from Legacy mode. I was able to connect the same external hard drive that I had used with the Pi to one of the USB 3 ports and it mounted without fuss under Debian.The system comes with both HDMI and Display Port video but sans cables. I had a spare Display Port on my monitor, so I bought a cable (one-day delivery) from Amazon, and I was up and running. After initial configuration I mostly log into the system with Putty, so I hardly use the monitor. But I did want sound capability. I purchased a cheap USB speaker, and it works great. My total investment was still less than the Pi and it runs circles around it.Rather than use the USB mouse that came with my purchase, I used the built-in Bluetooth to connect my Logitech MX master. Once again, no problems whatsoever, one less cable to mess with. I am using both the WiFi card, built-in and the 1GB ethernet port. The drivers for Debian installed by default for both. I didn’t have to hunt for anything, plug-and-play!I love the size of this thing. You can see it in my picture beside my full-size desktop system. The external Hard Drive (purchased separately) is sitting on top of it.Overall, I am very happy with my purchase and would recommend this product to anyone looking for a reliable and affordable computer that is easy to install Debian Unix on.

Literal Fire Hazard
DO NOT BUY. I bought this as a gift for my 12 year old for Christmas. It was weird to set up and we had to do some troubleshooting because it was stuck initially trying to get us to log in to some school district. We were able to get it to work eventually and now here we are after about 2 months and it just would no longer turn on. He wasn’t using it for much besides playing some Roblox and Minecraft maybe every couple of days so the use was moderate at best.I thought, ok, things happen, so I decided I would just let them send me a replacement. Well, today I plugged in the replacement I was just sent and, I kid you not, IT STARTED SMOKING. This is not only a bad product, it is a dangerous one. They are clearly just slapping some glitter skin and some pretty lights and not even making sure if it is safe or functional. Do yourself a huge favor and do NOT buy from this seller/“refurbisher”.

Exactly What I Needed
I first ordered this unit two years ago, when my tower computer began to die, because it has all the features I need: 32 Gb RAM, 1 terabyte solid state storage, optical drive, small form factor. I could not have been happier with my purchase. It arrived securely packed, and the Windows 10 setup was smooth and clean from the moment I powered up. Its performance since then has been reliable and trouble-free. Last week I ordered the same unit for my friend, whose desktop PC had died, and again, the experience of setting it up was painless and satisfying. The unit comes with a display port/HDMI adapter and a WiFi adapter, neither of which I use (he VGA connection works perfectly fine, and I use a wired ethernet connection), but these would come in handy if needed. It also comes with a basic USB mouse and keyboard, but of course you can easily substitute wireless versions.On a personal note, I must say that with everything streaming into and out of a cloud these days, it all seems too ephemeral for my taste. What a comfort to have a true “personal” computer with which to interact and to entrust my lifetime of accumulated documents and media.I selected this unit based on its features, not its price. That said, I can’t imagine a better value on the market today. But please don’t purchase them all. I may want another one of these days.

Me llegó en un muy buen estado, excelente. No he tenido ningún problema. Es bastante rápida que es lo que más me importaba. Manejo diariamente hasta 4 programas que jalan muchos datos y la computadora los maneja sin problema. Me gustó mucho.
