Did I Get the Wrong Intel NUC?

I wanted to try my hand at using a NUC to load Roon’s ROCK. I watched a few videos and picked up a NUC 11PAHi7 with 16GB of RAM and 500GB of SSD, since it was on sale.

But, upon further research, it looks like I picked the wrong one as this unit doesn’t have a M.2 SSD and it also comes with Windows. I was planning on using this NUC for Roon, only.

So before I return it and get a bareboned NUC with the proper SSD, wanted to ask the folks here if that’s the right call. I won’t put anything on the internal SSD, as my music is stored on an external drive attached via USB.

What do you suggest?

Thank you.
