China's Mini PC Production [video]

Amazing work being done by this company. Congratulations to their staff for pulling off what appears to be a well organized operation.

That looks like the Beelink SER8. Several months ago, I recommended one to a family member and helped them set it up. The mini PC has been working very well so far.

This came up in my recommendations yesterday and I ended up losing a few hours to videos on this channel! The one thing I didn’t understand was why at ~14:00 they’re gluing the CMOS battery down!? That battery will certainly last less than the useful life of the PC. Seems like a surprising choice.
ProllyInfamous•2h ago
>gluing down CMOS ... seems surprising

This is because without securing the battery, it becomes the most-likely RMA reason (shipping can unseat the battery).

For the zero/one time in the computer's lifetime that it requires replacement, there's a chemical that will remove the glue's attachment.

alargemoose•2h ago
Very good point. I know there’s a “clip” there to keep it secure, but certainly could get moved during shipping.
Havoc•2h ago
Glue is cheaper than a spring loaded cmos battery holder like you get on desktop boards

There was more human manual work, than in the last video about cpu-coolers, from that channel.

What I did find very fascinating was the improvised/temporary cpu-cooler applied during the first POST, in fact already under power and booting, then pressing it on the bare die with some soft TIM-foam.

Phew! Close!

But obviously works reliably enough, for that single step of production/testing.

Also using Crucial DIMMs. Couldn't recognize the SSD, though.

I had a look at their mini NAS and it can sell with a Crucial SSD. I would assume it’s the same for all of their machines.
