Packaging
The mid-sized package has the unit's model number on its front. Right below it, Thecus states this NAS to be a suitable product for small businesses environments and a little below it is a small list with the unit's most crucial features. A list of icons also depicts some of its more interesting features, and there is a picture of the N4310 itself near the bottom-right corner.
Thecus uses a nice scheme on this side; it showcases some of the more important advantages this NAS brings to the table. These include its low energy consumption, especially compared to a desktop PC, its fast enough network-transfer speeds for a mid-level NAS with a single Gigabit Ethernet port, the personal cloud ability through the T-OnTheGo mobile application, and its built-in Plex server through which multimedia content can be streamed to all kinds of compatible devices.
On this side are the unit's specifications and its supported applications. You will also find all supported languages and packages here. Thecus did a great job in terms of the box's graphics and content design as it shows that even an affordable product can come in a nice, but highly informative box.
Contents & Bundle
Open the box and you will be greeted by the quick installation guide. Underneath it is the NAS, surrounded in packing foam.
The bundle includes a utility and documentation CD, an RJ-45 cable, and two sachets with screws.
The power brick is made by Channel Well Technology, a PSU OEM mostly known for its incredibly successful cooperation with Corsair. The PSU's model number is KPL-065F, and it can provide up to 65 W of power, which is enough to cover the needs of this NAS.
