Article updates added below, including new unboxing pictures and video.
Since spotting new arrivals at Supermicro's New X10 UP Server & Storage Solutions site, interest for big images of these little server beasts has been considerable.
The tiny thumbnail picture sizes on the product pages were such a tease:

I wrote all about these systems 4 days ago, creating a comparative size picture you'll also want to check out:
Today, no need for more words, other than a tip for TinkerTry's new photo gallery: click once on a picture for a gallery view, twice to really zoom in and pan around, or use the full screen icon at top-right.
Here you go, all the (stock PR) pictures, in their full resolution glory!

JUL 27 2016 Update
I received 2 loaner systems today, a first-in-world SYS-E300-8D and SYS-E200-8D 1U mini systems. To my surprise, they look better in person than the stock PR photos above! It was a busy day for many other reasons, so I only had a few minutes to grab and share some video and pics. Worry not, there will be better pictures and more video. I'm just getting started, with plans that include measurements of weight, watt burn, and TinkerTry-visitor-requested dB output from front and back.

These systems still work great for many even 9+ years later, mine included, even with (unsupported) vSphere 8 and Windows 11 Version 21H2. But unless you added the optional TPM module, it may be the end of the line as far as repurposing them for running the latest Windows 11 Version 24H2 and beyond.
