The unit has a SilentX 350 Watt mini PSU with switch that supports 100/240V AC input. Memory support is via a 2 x 184pin slots for DDR-400/333 memory modules at 200/166 MHz for a total size of 2GB (1 GB per module). The unit is made of P-type aluminum chassis with integrated 8-in-1 card reader. The unit has airflow design with three independent cooling zones - CPU, HDD and Case/PSU and has 1 x 5.25", 2 x 3.5" (HDD only) storage bay. The unit measures 325 x 220 x 210 mm and weighs 5.8 kg.
The Shuttle SN26P is a small form factor barebone with the power of SLI™ technology equipped with two PCI Express slots for 16X SLI graphics cards. Heatpipe cooling and three independent cooling zones give silent, stable operation. The SLI, PCI-E, Athlon 64 FX/X2 supports high-speed networking. Audio is support is via an 8-channel Audio 7.1 Hardware Sound Controller (VIA Envy24PT). Connectivity is via Integrated Gigabit Ethernet network controller with Marvell® Alaska® 88E1111 PHY that supports 10 / 100 / 1.000 MBit/s operation and Hardware Firewall with NVIDIA® ActiveArmor™ secure networking engine (SNE) as well as IEEE1394 Firewire controller VIA VT6307 with 2 Firewire connectors (front and rear) that supports 400Mb/s, 200Mb/s, 100Mb/s data transfer rate. The unit features the Shuttle I.C.E. (Integrated Cooling Engine) with advanced Heatpipe technology and has linear fan control with 4-pin fan connector. This unit features screwless drive installation without tools, stealthed drive doors and pre-installed thin, flat cables. The unit has its Power and Reset buttons at the front and Clear CMOS button at the backpanel.
See lessThe SN26P is a masterpiece of small form factor PC engineering. The intelligent cooling system means that heat and noise are kept well under control, and it's also as fast as a full-sized nForce4 SLI system in games and applications. We even like the moody black looks, although aesthetics, as always, are a matter of taste. The power warnings are a cause for concern, although they didn't affect performance in any way. In fact, the only really serious complaints are the... Read more
The arrival of SLI on the SFF platform banishes any lingering perception that the SFF compromises on performance in favor of its small footprint. Shuttle has worked tirelessly to lead the market it has pioneered and again, it has produced the goods when it mattered. While other vendors are content to release a new model only months if not a year after the original chipset has been introduced, Shuttle's quick turnaround time in getting the products to market has attracted...

I really like the Shuttle SN26P, especially for use as a Home Theatre PC. It can sit away unobtrusively in the background untill you want to use it. If you have a music collection downloaded from somewhere like itunes you can stream them to your TV for neverending music (or music videos). Read more
