Thecus 1U4500 and (last)N5200 have the same motherboard.

The 1U4500 have a 1.5 GHz celeron proc, maybe the new N5200 will be upgradable.

The N5200 v1.2 board(the 1u4500) has a ZIF socket?? ;D

The riser card slot is reversed though compared to the v1.1 N5200 board. Not a direct swap out

Looks like the bus increase is already enabled for the 1u4500.

my N5200 has PCB v2.0.
it looks similar to v1.2 as first look, but has better (i would say, more professional look) raiser card connection.

i will make photo as soon as i will open N5200 again.

SSD has 128MB unlike all sources i've read.
