Fanless daily driver?

[donblanco]

What I am trying to replace: mini-itx  I LINUX Mint, 3 drives and a noisy fan. 

Typical usage:

- Music/video streaming (youtube/SomaFM, etc)
- Browsing
- Darktable (photo editing)
- ebook server
- Libre Office
- email (Mailspring)
- watching video downloads
- Transmission torrent client
- VS Code (web sites)

Occasional/optional usage:

- video editing

Need to be able to:

- connect to 3 drives (USB?)
- connect to VT KEYBOARD
- do HDMI

Questions:

1 - is this possible with the RockPro64 in a small fanless case?
2 - is Linux Mint 19 running on this yet?
