I understand the hardware and I had purchased this device to use it for a PFsense firewall (as is commonly recommended).  The reality is that one thing that electronics don't like is HEAT.  I fully realize that the intent here is to have it passively cool the processor through a heatsink, but really, even touching this heatsink with your bare hand lets you know that it's far too hot for something you will want to last a while.  For this price, I need something that doesn't get above 45 degrees, and I can already foresee the day when this device quits due to heat damage.  No thanks.
