A closer look under the hood reveals space for at least three drives and brings four SATA 6 Gbit/s connectors. The SH170R6 also features 1x PCI-Express-x16-3.0 and 1x PCI-Express-x4-3.0. In addition, a Mini-PCI-Express-x1-2.0 and M.2 slot enable installation of a WLAN module and an SSD. The external dimensions are 33.2 x 21.6 x 19.8 cm (DWH).

The eight blue external USB 3.0 ports are accompanied by 8-channel audio, two further USB ports, one of which can be used to charge mobile devices, eSATA and Intel Gigabit Ethernet.

2x DisplayPort and 1x HDMI are available for connecting displays. These can be operated in parallel and are able to support (Core i3 or higher required) 4K monitors at 60 Hz (DP) or 30 Hz (HDMI).

A 300 W power supply unit provides the SH170R6 with source of energy even at maximum system configuration (processor, memory, drives). If necessary, it can be replaced by a 500W power supply unit, e.g. if high-end graphics cards are installed. The machine is cooled by an active heatpipe cooling system.

The recommended retail price for the Shuttle Barebone SH170R6 is EUR 258.00 (ex VAT). Optional accessories include a WLAN module (WLN-C), an RS-232 connector (H-RS232), 1x 3.5" to 2x 2.5" installation frame (PHD3) and a 500 W power supply unit (PC63J).
