  • Blogging my NUC i5 Gen 6 Build
Folks- Blogging the ordering and install process to help others: I ordered this on a Saturday am, and it arrived with the Kingston HyperMax memory DDR4-2133 by Sunday night - so far so good. Samsung Evo 850 256G M.2 SSD ordered at the same time arrived Monday. Amazon was the seller for all 3 components. Set Up Notes: System build date on the bottom of the box was 5/5/2016 - came with BiOS Version 42 Kit comes with a separate mounting plate for the back of TVs - I dont expect to use it so I set it aside. To open it up to insert RAM and SSD, I unscrewed screws at the bottom of NUC - they dont actually come out - they loosen the case so you can flip it over, and then lift out the top cover which has the top and 4 sides attached. Carefully lifting off the cover, there is a cable connecting the tray where the 2.5 SATA Drive sits if you use it. Kingston RAM goes in pretty easily - "Kingston" label faces up- put in the bottom stick first into the slot at a slight angle, then push in and down gently until the locking tabs on the side click. Repeat with top RAM stick. Samsung EVO M.2 SSD was a little harder: "Samsung" sticker actually goes face down. The good news is that the screw you need to secure the M.2 SSD is already on the motherboard (so no worries about the rants on the Samsung M.2 evo reviews on that account.) With the RAM closest to you, the slot to connect the M.2 SSD is on the right, and the screw is on the left, screwed into a short post. I used my smallest phillips screwdriver to remove the M.2 screw - which is very small. After some trial and error, I figures out how to insert the Samsung M.2 SSD into the M.2 slot. Without the screw, it stick up at about a 15 degree angle from the motherboard. Screwing in the M.2 attaching screw took several attempts - it kept falling off my smallest phillips screw driver - used tweezers a couple of times to retrieve it, and twice had to flip over the box gently to get it out of the motherboard. Wearning my glasses, and using my fingernail to hold the screw onto the head of the screwdriver, I finally was able to simultaneously depress the SSD to horizontal and to get the screw into the mounting pole and screw it down - gently of course. Whew! You have to pick the power plug for your region, and then slide out a strip on the side of the wall wart, then slide in your power plug attachment. Cleverly done, but I would have prefered a plug separated by a wire from the AC/DC adapter brick - wall warts often take up 2 plug sports. Plugged in the power cable into my power strip and the back of the NUC, plugged in HDMI cable from the monitor, and a USB mouse and keyboard into the the back of the NUC, then turned it on to see the BiOS Screen on the monitor. Yeah- ITS ALIVE! Next: Update BiOS and Windows installation. I booted into BiOS and check the version - this box came with V42. I'd read some war stories in the reviews, so I decided to update the BiOS bevore installing Windows. Using a clean USB flash drive, I downloaded the V45 BiOS:: [...] (or go to the Intel downloads site, and hunt for NUC BiOS files to get to the same place if this link doesnt work for you.) From the intel site: "Recovery BIOS Update [SY0045.BIO]—A .BIO file to be used for F7 BIOS Update method or a BIOS recovery process. In the unlikely event that a BIOS update is interrupted, it's possible the BIOS may be left in an unusable state. Use the recovery BIOS update to recover from this condition. It requires a USB flash device or CD." Turned off the NUC, plugged in the USB flash drive with the V45 BiOS, turned on the NUC, and hit "F7" at the right moment during boot to launch the bios update utility. Pretty easy to follow the onscreen directions to pick the USB flash drive and the bios file (in the UBS root directory). BiOS update takes maybe 7 minutes, but there are good progress onscreen announcements to keep you feeling comfortable that things are going ok. BiOS update competed successfully with BiOs version "SYSKLi35.86A.0045.2016.0527.1055" Success! Exited the BiOS utility and turned off the NUC. Next- Install Windows 10 via USB ISO:: I downloaded the Window Media Creation tool from the MS site: [...] and put it onto a clean USB flash drive. I removed the BiOS flash drive, and put in the Windows 10 ISO USB Flash drive. Turned the NUC back on, and the windows 10 installation program started right up, asked for language, and then asked for my windows activation key. Looking good so far: I'll come back I'll pick this blog up after I buy my copy of windows 10 pro and have a working activation key. Success - Windows 10 installed successfully from the USB drive - Just follow the on screen instructions and select the new install option. To start, I chose to skip installing the password - I will come back to that later. NUUC reboots a couple of times, and then launches Windows 10. Cool. But Wait - No Network connection. Apparently the windows 10 ISO USB I am using doesn't have any of the Intel NUC Nwk Drivers - what's up with that MS and Intel? So back to my legacy machine and my USB flash drive - I create a NUC drivers folder and download the Win 10 driver installation utilities from the Intel website, being careful to choose the correct Gen 6i5 NUC products: 1- Wired Ethernet: Intel® Gigabit Network Connection Driver for Intel® NUC Kits NUC6i[x]SY and NUC6i7KYK (stardate 4/29/2016) and 2- Wifi: Intel® Gigabit Network Connection Driver for Intel® NUC Kits NUC6i[x]SY and NUC6i7KYK (date 6/30/2016) These are self installing utilities - so I just drag them from the download folder into the NUC Drivers Folder in the USB drive. Pull the USB drive from the legacy machine, plug it into the NUC USB port, open windows explorer and run the utilities. I select the default options, and when I get the caution msg that windows 10 does support a certain intel nwkg protocol, I choose the proceed anyway option. Success again - I can now connect to the Internet! Now to the Intel site, this time from the NUC, and get the Intel NUC driver Update utility: 8/5/16 All good so far - one last issue to track down is that I cant seem to wake the NUC from sleep mode using the USB mouse or keyboard. 9/15/16 - Bypassed the sleep/wake issue by connecting the NUC to a monitor using an Amazon basics mini-DVI to VGA adaptor- NUC now wakes up from sleep normally. Never solved the HDMI sleep/wake issue- probable some kind of CEC issue- hopefully some driver update will fix it someday for other folks. I'm at 100% loving it- building it was fun, it's small, quiet, and cool- I'm not a video gamer, but for everything else it's great! ... show more

  • works great other than the lame SD card reader
I bought this unit with a pair of 8GB Kingston hyper X DDR4 2133MHz memory sticks mainly as a htpc. Shipping is quick as promised. Things arrive well-packed. Thank you Amazon. The first two things I do when I receive this unit are an immediate upgrade of stock bios to the newest 044 and then clean install of 64bit windows 8 pro. Some thoughts as listed as follows after 36-hrs use. 1.Theoretically this nuc6i5syh is way better than my nuc5i5ryh in performance. But in fact, you won't notice the difference between them most of time in normal use. They both work great. 2.Fan noise is barely noticeable at default speed when working or idling unless you are running stress test on it. 3.Can play almost all media files including 2160p@30fps I throw at it with no hiccup. But don't expect too much more than that especially when dealing with 2160p @60p files encoded using HEVC L5.1 with MPC-HC player via HDMI, it stutters at first and eventually causes 100% CPU usage. 4.the main downside about this unit is, it has trouble reading my 128GB kingston SDXC card formatted in NTFS. Every time when popping in the card into the card slot, my x64 windows 8.1 pro starts freezing. The mouse becomes very sluggish or even unresponsive. At the same time, system has a ridiculously 60% cpu usage from 5% for no reason. and then resumes back to normal after 3-5 minutes but end up failing to access all the files on the sd card. I do a google search and find other guys have the same problem on either 64bit windows 7 or Ubuntu. I haven't tried windows 10 yet. No ideas why. But I highly doubt the issue is OS independent and is just related to the drivers or hardware. 5.Thanks for intel continuous efforts, I haven't yet encountered WHEA error so far, looks like the newest bios has fixed the flaw which used to bother a lot of ppl in the past few months. But still need more time to prove its stability and durability. Overall, I'm quite happy with this purchase. The little device does a great job and meets all my expectations. I think that it should have deserved 5 stars if the card reader works properly. Hopefully Intel rolls out new driver or firmware to fix this problem ASAP. ... show more
