Add the Intel NUC13 to the recommended hardware list
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This commit adds the Intel NUC13 to the recommended hardware list,
including the hardware end-of-life table. Because the NUC13 uses
the same wireless card as the NUC12, and is very similar in its
hardware apart from the CPU, much of the content is borrowed from
the NUC12 section.

Intel 13th-gen NUC
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We have tested and can recommend the `Intel NUC13ANHi5 <https://www.asus.com/us/displays-desktops/nucs/nuc-mini-pcs/asus-nuc-13-pro/>`__.
It provides two M.2 SSD storage options: a 22x80 port for an NVMe drive, and a
22x42 port for a SATA drive. It also has a 2.5 inch drive bay for a SATA hard
drive or SSD (if using this slot, we recommend choosing an SSD).

The NUC13's AX211 wireless hardware is removable. Doing so requires the use of
a 5mm nut driver. Before installation of the RAM and storage, we recommend that
you remove the wireless card and disconnect the wireless antennae leads
from the AX211 component. Be sure to cover the free ends with electrical tape
after disconnecting them.

Because of the newer hardware and the drivers required, you will need to use a
newer Linux kernel than the one that ships by default in the version of Ubuntu
Server we recommend. To do so, select the "Boot and Install with the HWE
Kernel" option in the boot menu for Ubuntu Server.
