Moonstone also offers abundant connectivity options. Peripheral devices can be seamlessly linked via the four USB-A ports, 2.5Gb LAN port, and dual USB-C ports. Moreover, the system can be further expanded with a replaceable lid or expansion panel for additional input/output.
Under the hood, Moonstone uses AMD’s Zen 4 architecture, which provides 8 cores with 16 threads of computing power. This is made possible without excessive power consumption, thanks to a new power management design that allows unused cores to be put to sleep, thereby preventing unnecessary power draw. Further, Moonstone employs Simply NUC’s patented Dual Exhaust Cooling solution, ensuring the system remains cool and quiet, even under high-performance tasks.
