Experience (bad) so far with 3 intel NUC used as Roon Core

Yeah - something like a line conditioner, or, possibly more useful, running it through a UPS so you have the battery in the path to smooth out the power going to the NUC might help.

Wow! That’s some bad luck. Did you try updating the BIOS to the very latest version before installing the ROCK OS Software? My ROCK install went pretty smoothly except for one problem. In the BIOS settings I did not have the LAN enabled so ROCK was unable to find its serial number which is really its MAC address.

Please could you share link to the fanless case you use, and any environment set-up tips?

I’d like to migrate my NUC!

For Akasa cases, you’ll need to find out whether you’re using NUC7i5D* or NUC7i5B*. For the former (newer) generation, you may check out Plato X7D. For the latter (old) generation you need Plato X7 instead.
