partaker B6 barebone mini PC i5-6300U 16GB 512GB

Industrial Fanless Mini PC

The Partaker B6 is a compact, fanless mini PC built around an Intel Core i5-6300U processor with 2 cores and 4 threads. It arrives with 16 GB of DDR4 memory and a 512 GB SSD installed. The aluminium alloy chassis runs silently and is rated for industrial temperature ranges when an industrial SSD is used. It targets integrators and OEMs deploying edge, kiosk or automation workloads that demand zero moving parts and wide operating temperatures.

I/O and Expansion Limits

Dual Gigabit LAN ports use RTL8111H controllers for wired networking. Video output is provided by one VGA and one HDMI port, with HDMI supporting up to 3280x2000 at 60 Hz. Six USB ports are split between four USB 3.0 and two USB 2.0. Two COM ports handle RS232/485 serial duties. Internal expansion includes one M.2 2280 slot compatible with SATA and NVMe at PCIe 3.0 x1, plus a Mini PCIe slot with a SIM card holder for cellular modules. GPIO and extra USB 2.0 headers are optional and not included by default.

Memory and Storage Decider

The system has a single DDR4 SO-DIMM slot limited to 16 GB maximum, so the pre-installed 16 GB module already saturates the memory ceiling. Storage flexibility comes from the M.2 2280 slot and a 2.5-inch drive bay, allowing a second SATA drive or an NVMe SSD alongside the supplied 512 GB unit. Buyers who need more than 16 GB of RAM must choose a different platform.
