Maxsun has revealed the complete specifications of its SK-PTLNAS and SK-WCLAIO motherboards, two NAS-focused MoDT (Mobile on Desktop) platforms powered by Intel’s Panther Lake and Wildcat Lake processors. First demonstrated at Computex 2026, both models are expected to launch this month, although Maxsun has not yet confirmed their pricing.
The SK-PTLNAS is the more powerful option, featuring Intel’s Core Ultra 9 386H processor with 16 CPU cores and four Xe3 graphics cores. The chip has a 25W base power rating and can reach up to 80W under turbo workloads. This is a change from the original Computex specifications, which mentioned configurations with the Core Ultra X9 388H. The latest listing now identifies the Core Ultra 9 386H as the highest-end option.
For memory, the SK-PTLNAS supports up to 128GB of DDR5-7200 RAM through two SO-DIMM slots. Storage connectivity includes five M.2 slots and three Mini SAS ports, allowing users to connect multiple drives. Maxsun has also equipped the board with a PCIe 5.0 x8 expansion slot, 10GbE and 2.5GbE networking, two additional 1GbE ports, and two Thunderbolt 4 connections. Windows 11 and Ubuntu are listed among the supported operating systems.
The smaller SK-WCLAIO uses Intel’s six-core Core 7 350 processor, featuring two performance cores and four low-power efficient cores, alongside two Xe3 graphics cores. Measuring just 90 x 165mm, the board has a much smaller footprint than the micro-ATX design Maxsun previously displayed in June.
It supports up to 48GB of DDR5-6400 memory through a single SO-DIMM slot and includes 1TB of onboard UFS 3.1 storage alongside four M.2 slots. However, Intel’s Wildcat Lake platform has limited PCIe lanes, so users should not expect all four M.2 drives to receive full x4 bandwidth simultaneously.
Power efficiency is another consideration for the SK-WCLAIO. Maxsun lists 45W power consumption during active operation and 16W when connected drives are in standby mode. This could make the compact motherboard suitable for home NAS systems designed to run continuously. Its power input specifications remain unclear, as the listing mentions both a 12V DC jack and USB-C Power Delivery.
The SK-PTLNAS targets users who need higher storage capacity, faster networking, and more expansion options, while the SK-WCLAIO focuses on compact systems with lower power requirements. Both motherboards are expected to arrive this month, but Maxsun has yet to disclose their final prices.
