"AAEON sent me a sample of the UP Squared 7100 fanless industrial SBC for review. The board is powered by an Intel N97 or N100 Alder Lake-N SoC (Amston Lake processors will be offered soon), and is equipped with up to 16GB LPDDR5 RAM and 128GB eMMC flash, plus two M.2 sockets for wireless and storage expansion.
After going through the setup wizard, I could confirm Ubuntu 24.04.1 was indeed pre-installed on the board. It’s a slightly customized image and comes with a link to the UP Community Wiki on the bottom right side of the desktop.
Everything looks to be detected properly. The idle CPU temperature is reported to be 59°C, a little higher than I had expected since the smaller UP 7000 idled at 54°C."
