I have owned one since 09-2011.
It runs with an SSD. It is in my bedroom as my XBMC HTPC running Win8.
It is great for all video.
It is VERY noisy though. It is the big drawback. I have read that the AD11 is the same.
I love it, but can't recommend it as a bedroom HTPC.

I haven't had any noise issues with AD10; however, with the release of AE, am told AD10 will not be supported for HD Audio. Was basically hoping to play FLAC files from my HTPC without down-mixing. Seems AD10 will not help there Sad

Is there any standalone XBMC version compatible with it which I can run for USBdrive or HDD without installing windows?

Try OpenElec. I use Version 1.95.3 on AD10 without any issues.
