Protectli Vault FW4B - 4 Port, Firewall Micro Appliance/Mini PC - Intel Quad Core, AES-NI, 8GB RAM, 120GB mSATA SSD

Received, great condition. better than expected quality. works as advertised

Using it for PFSense on an 80Mbps DLS connection, works fine. The Manufatures website has full specs and some good FAQs on what to performance to expect with PFSense for each model.

Started out with 1 vault, planned to have 2 vaults for managing 2 locations. The first one came with bad RAM and bad CPU.

These cheap mass produced units most likely have hardware backdoors built into them. It makes really really good sense for China to push these into the world markets. Only buy if you want to greatly assist them in their worldly conquests. Real hardware costs more because name brands make sure to a reasonable extent that their hardware isnt compromised.

My Protectli Vault FW4B has its mSata screws locktight/glued from the factory. This makes zero sense considering you have to install your own storage. The screws used are very low quality and strip immediately. Buyer be warned.

Died after a couple of weeks of use.

I use this as my firewall/router at the colo facility Im hosted at and it is a solid unit, does not require any maintenance or cuddling and very compact design.

Computer comes with BIOS not patched for latest vulnerabilities, would not use it in home network, any network.

simply love it. I may get another for media server.

Perfect little box for pfsense.
