CompuLab has just announced the introduction of an updated version of the Trim Slice Tegra 2 powered SFF desktop they released a few months back, and now the compact computer support an user accessible SATA hard disk bay.

The Trim Slice H, as this is now called, will be available in two versions, one coming without any storage device, while the other includes a 250GB hard drive with a pre-installed Linux distro.

Users that opt for the diskless version have the option of adding a 2.5-inch SATA drive, HDD, SSD or hybrid, and the Trim Slice H can support even recently released 1TB notebook hard drives.

No matter what model you may end up choosing, both of these Mini-PCs are powered by a dual-core Nvidia Tegra 2 system-on-a-chip (SoC) clocked at 1GHz, and feature Gigabit Ethernet, 802.11n WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity.

The latter is achieved by using the supplied USB dongle, which can be installed in one of the four USB 2.0 ports available on the Trim Slice H.

CompuLab's small form-factor desktop is also equipped with HDMI and DVI video outputs, an SD card slot, and an RS232 serial port.

High-capacity and affordable storage is a vital element of the PC experience" said Irad Stavi, Director of Business Development at CompuLab.

"With Trim-Slice H, ARM users are no longer deprived of choice when it comes to storage," concluded the company's representative.

The Trim-Slice H diskless mini-PC, where the buyers can add the hard disk or SSD, has a recommended price of $279, while the 250GB model, the Trim-Slice H250, features a MSRP of $319. Both units will be available towards the end of August.

In order to reaffirm its support for the open-source community, CompuLab is now making a special offer to open-source developers, which can get the Trim-Slice Pro Dev-Kit with a 45% discount, making it $175 from the original $319.
