docs(hardware): identify XTRM-U mainboard (N5 Air) + flag 1Gbps network anomaly
ci/woodpecker/push/woodpecker Pipeline was successful

- Mainboard was 'details TBD': Minisforum N5 Air (Meigao F8NAB/N5A), Ryzen 7 255
  + 780M, 64GB DDR5-5600, USB4/TB, free OCuLink + PCIe x8 + M.2; OS -> Unraid 7.3.1
- Network: 10G/5G NICs but link only 1Gbps (eth1 degraded at 10Mb/s) — flagged

| **Role** | Production Server |
| **Location** | 10" Rack U1-U4 |
| **IP** | 192.168.10.20 |
| **OS** | Unraid 6.x |
| **OS** | Unraid 7.3.1 (kernel 6.18.33) |
**Motherboard:** Replaced 2026-02-24 (new board, details TBD)
**Mainboard (replaced 2026-02-24):** Minisforum **N5 Air** — Meigao `F8NAB` / system `N5A` (AMI BIOS 1.01, 2025-10-24). Verified 2026-06-30.
**Network:**
| Interface | MAC | Speed |
|-----------|-----|-------|
| br0 | 38:05:25:35:8E:7A | 2.5G |
**CPU/APU:** AMD Ryzen 7 255 (Phoenix/Hawk Point, 8C/16T) + Radeon **780M** iGPU (gfx1103)
**RAM:** 64 GB DDR5-5600 (2× 32 GB SODIMM); ~46 GiB usable by OS (rest reserved, likely iGPU UMA), 0 swap
**Connectivity:** USB4 / Thunderbolt (AMD Pink Sardine)
**Expansion (for eGPU / AI):**
| Slot | Status | Notes |
|------|--------|-------|
| OCuLink (PCIe 4.0 x4) | built-in | data only — eGPU powered by PSU in the dock, not the N5 Air |
| PCIe x8 (J96) | free | usable, but no internal case space for a GPU |
| M.2 Socket (J132) | free | spare (M.2→OCuLink also possible) |
| 3× M.2 (J98/J109/J100) | in use | NVMe cache pool |
**Network:** onboard Realtek **RTL8127 (10GbE-capable)** + **RTL8126 (5GbE-capable)**, bonded → `bond0``br0` (MAC `38:05:25:35:8E:7B`).
⚠️ **Actual link only 1 Gbps** (verified 2026-06-30): `eth0` = 1000 Mb/s active, `eth1` = **10 Mb/s** (degraded bond member). 10G/5G hardware not running at speed — likely switch port (ZX1 is 2.5G) / cabling / bond fault. Worth investigating.

### XTRM-U mainboard identified + network anomaly
- **[HARDWARE]** Filled in the "details TBD" mainboard: Minisforum **N5 Air** (Meigao F8NAB / N5A), Ryzen 7 255 + 780M, 64 GB DDR5-5600, USB4/TB, free OCuLink + PCIe x8 + M.2. OS corrected to Unraid 7.3.1.
- **[NETWORK]** ⚠️ Found XTRM-U linking at only **1 Gbps** despite 10GbE+5GbE NICs (bond0: eth0=1000 Mb/s, eth1=10 Mb/s degraded). Needs investigation (cabling/switch/bond).
