The back panel houses four USB 2.0 ports, an Ethernet port, and a power connector. Jacks for microphone and Stereo Line-in and Line-out connectors make connecting external speakers simple. A VGA port lets you connect to a monitor, but the lack of an HDMI port is a glaring omission, as the high-definition port is found on most other entry-level and SFF PCs, like the Gateway SX2850-33 or the Dell i620-228NBK. Internally, you’ll find a 1TB 7,200rpm hard drive, which is plenty of room for storing programs and files. 802.11n Wi-Fi lets you get online easily and gives you flexibility in stashing the system in a desk or other spot far away from your cable modem and router. Though the Slimline s5-1020 has two available PCI Express x1 slots, and a PCIe x16 slot, there’s still very little physical room for upgrades, so you’ll have to make do with what you’re buying. That said, the system is more serviceable than a compact nettop.
