Datorchassi Akasa A-NUC52-M1B Cube svart

The Akasa A-NUC52-M1B Cube Black is a compact PC case designed for small form factor builds that prioritize space efficiency and thermal performance. Constructed from aluminium with a black finish, this cube-style chassis accommodates UCFF motherboards and integrates a 25 W power supply. The enclosure supports 2.5" hard drives and M.2 SSDs, and includes a front USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A port for straightforward peripheral connection. Its compact footprint and vertical layout suit minimalist desktop setups and living-room systems.

Advantages

The aluminium construction provides a solid, lightweight housing that aids passive heat dissipation while keeping overall weight low. Integrated power supply eliminates the need for an external brick and simplifies installation. Support for both 2.5" drives and M.2 SSDs allows flexible storage configurations. The single front USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A port delivers fast wired connectivity for external drives and peripherals. The cube form factor and compact dimensions enable placement in constrained spaces without sacrificing essential connectivity.

Suitable for

• Home media centers and living-room PCs
• Compact office workstations where desk space is limited
• Point-of-sale or kiosk systems using UCFF motherboards
• Minimalist builds requiring a small, integrated power supply

How to use

Install a UCFF motherboard into the internal mounting points and secure it according to the board manufacturer’s instructions. Fit a 2.5" drive into the dedicated bay and/or install an M.2 SSD on the motherboard’s M.2 slot. Connect the included 25 W power supply to the motherboard power connector and any required peripheral power headers. Route cables neatly within the compact interior to maintain airflow and close the case panels. Connect external devices to the front USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A port as needed, and place the case in a well-ventilated area to ensure effective passive and active cooling of internal components.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, use low-power UCFF motherboards and energy-efficient components to stay within the thermal and power limits of the integrated 25 W supply. Ensure the case is positioned with adequate clearance around ventilation openings and avoid placing heavy obstructions on top of the chassis. When installing high-performance M.2 SSDs, allow for occasional idle periods to prevent sustained thermal throttling in confined enclosures.
