Frequently Asked Questions

  • ZimaBoard SE brings the familiar ZimaBlade hardware platform into the ZimaBoard family, with a refreshed name and a more complete out-of-box experience.

    The core hardware remains largely unchanged, while ZimaBoard SE now includes 8GB or 16GB RAM pre-installed, 64GB eMMC storage, ZimaOS, and essential accessories.

    It's about making your home server easier to get started with, rather than introducing a new generation of hardware.

  • Yes! With RAM and ZimaOS already installed, there's less setup to worry about.

    Simply connect your device, complete the initial ZimaOS setup, and start exploring apps and features. No need to install RAM or an operating system from scratch.

  • Both kits include a ZimaBoard SE with pre-installed RAM and ZimaOS, a USB-C PD power adapter, and a SATA-Y cable.

    The NAS Kit adds a 2-bay drive rack tray and a 4K Mini DP cable, making it easier to build your own dual-drive storage setup.

    HDDs and SSDs are not included in either kit.

  • ZimaBoard SE comes with 64GB eMMC storage and ZimaOS pre-installed, so you can get started without installing a separate system drive.

    For larger photo libraries, media collections, or backups, we recommend adding HDDs or SSDs through the dual SATA ports.

  • Yes! The included power adapter and SATA-Y cable support powering two 3.5-inch SATA HDDs, so you don't need a separate power supply for the drives.

    Just connect your compatible drives to start building your storage setup. HDDs are sold separately.

  • Absolutely. ZimaBoard SE is built on an open x86 platform, so you're not limited to ZimaOS.

    While ZimaOS comes pre-installed for an easier start, you can install other compatible operating systems, such as Ubuntu or Debian. Compatibility and setup requirements may vary.

  • Yes! With two SATA 3.0 ports, ZimaBoard SE can be used as a compact NAS for personal files, backups, and media storage.

    Choose the NAS Kit for a convenient 2-bay drive mounting solution, or build your own storage setup with compatible drives and accessories.

  • Yes! With ZimaOS, you can install Docker-based apps and explore services like Plex, Jellyfin, Home Assistant, and more.

    Performance depends on your RAM configuration, workload, and media formats. For heavy multitasking or demanding transcoding, a more powerful server may be a better fit.

  • Of course! ZimaBoard SE features two SATA 3.0 ports for storage expansion and a PCIe 2.0 x4 interface for compatible accessories.

    Whether you're adding storage, experimenting with networking, or building your next project, there's room to explore.

  • It depends on what you want to do!

    ZimaBoard SE is ideal for everyday self-hosting, personal cloud storage, lightweight apps, and small home server projects, offering an accessible way to get started.

    ZimaBoard 2 is designed for users who need more processing power, faster networking, and greater expansion capabilities.
