It's really small, and basically now fits in a drawer space in my computer desk.  There are things to which I had to adapt.  My video cables were all HDMI, and this is only DisplayPort - it has 2.  The USB mouse and keyboard that come with it are so cheap as to be unusable for more than about a week before you buy something else.  The box it replaced had PS2 plugs.  (I bought an HDMI - DisplayPort adapter and a RedDragon keyboard and mouse which, though for gaming are really very good.)  Using the second video port to the big flatscreen TV, I was able to ditch the HDMI splitter I'd been using.  Getting the video and audio "right" was the only labor that was more than I anticipated.It comes with 6 USB ports, and I've used them all and added a few.  The quick booting from the SSD is great.  Still, I've got two other USB3 drives, one because I just don't trust SSD, and one for backup.
