MINISFORUM MS-02 Ultra (285HX)
MINISFORUM MS-02 Ultra (285HX) uses Intel Core Ultra 9 285HX with Intel Graphics. A larger compact workstation for PCIe expansion, virtualization and network-heavy tasks. NIC, ECC memory and SSD expansion differ between standard and NS packages, so a matching CPU alone is not enough to compare configurations.

- Ports & displays
- Two front USB4 v2 80Gbps Type-C, one rear USB4 40Gbps Type-C, four USB-A 10Gbps, HDMI 2.1 FRL and a 3.5 mm combo jack.
- Ethernet, Wi-Fi & Bluetooth
- Documented 285HX edition (not 285HX-NS): one 10GbE RJ45, one 2.5GbE RJ45 and a dual-port 25GbE expansion NIC. Wi-Fi 7 (Intel BE200) and Bluetooth 5.4. Link ratings are not measured network throughput.
- RAM & storage upgrades
- Four DDR5 SO-DIMM slots, manufacturer-listed up to 256 GB, with ECC support in the documented 285HX edition. ECC support does not establish that the 32GB retail configuration contains ECC modules. Two onboard M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 x4 slots (up to 8 TB each) plus two M.2 slots on the 25GbE NIC. PCIe 5.0 x16, PCIe 4.0 x16 (x4+x4+x4) and PCIe 4.0 x4 expansion. The separate 285HX-NS edition lacks ECC support and the two NIC-mounted storage slots.
- Power supply & power limits
- Internal PSU rated up to 350 W, 100–240 V AC input. This is supply capacity, not measured consumption.
- Dimensions & weight
- 221.5 × 97 × 225 mm for the MS-02 Ultra chassis, as reported in TechRadar's 285HX review; weight varies with the fitted expansion hardware.

About this data5 references
Specs and any benchmark results come from the sources below. We haven't tested this Mini PC ourselves.
Notes
- The two documented US configuration sources identify 285HX, not 285HX-NS (SKUs MS-02U-28500US and MS-02U-28531US). ECC support and the NIC-mounted SSD slots belong to that edition. Installed ECC memory is not confirmed for the 32GB configuration; do not transfer these edition features to an NS offer.
