UTM 9.6 on Shuttle XH310(V)?

Hi,

I am currently looking for a new DIY firewall for my home and found this piece of tech:
http://www.shuttle.eu/products/slim/xh310/overview/
It should be as small as possible but still somewhat beefy..

There are a few Questions I have:

1) Is this system or the H310 chipset (or 8th gen Intel CPUs) and the i211 chipset of the NICs supported?
I couldn't find any of the components on the official HCL for Sophos UTM but I read that the i211 NICs shouldn't be a problem..

2) I am planning on putting a Core i3-8300, a i5-8600 or a i7-8700 in it..
Will Hyper-Threading increase performance? If yes by what margin?
and
Will Turbo Boost increase performance? If yes by what margin?

I am planning on using all UTM modules with a 300/30 line currently.
Upgrades in the future to that line are likely.

I hope you guys can help me since a moderator of the Sophos subreddit guided me here.

Kind regards
xoaC

Hi xoaC

That system should work, as the only compatibility requirements for a software appliance install of Sophos UTM Home Edition is an Intel compatible PC.

Doing some research from past threads of other home users shows hit/miss experiences regarding hyper-threading. This may not even be necessary to consider as you mention this is for your home (home license restricts to 50 IPs anyways).
