The HP EliteDesk 800 is a small form factor business desktop, sold in several generations with different processors, memory and storage options. Its specifications for RAM, SSD and power vary by generation, so the exact configuration matters. The closest Thinvent alternative for a compact, Intel-based business PC is the Thinvent Treo Mini PC, which offers 8 GB to 64 GB of RAM and 128 GB to 2 TB of SSD storage. For fanless, embedded-style deployments such as pfSense firewall use, the Thinvent Industrial PC IPC1 and Thinvent Neo S Thin Client are also worth considering.
