So, here we have the unit shipped in. Light-blue and white packaging, the product is clearly tagged and shown on the box, easy to spot and verify in the stores, though hard to spot in our white photo studio ;)

 
 


Opening up the box you'll notice a well-packaged product. Chances of damage are fairly slim as the NAS is cushioned in-between two massive Styrofoam blocks and then has a plastic bag enclosing it. A separate carton holds the power brick and other included kit.

 

 
The front side of the AS4004T is revamped, the door now basically is a latch, held in place by four small magnets. it works really well actually. The front side is made of plastic, the outer casing is metal, which makes this a very sturdy product I must say. First impressions, a nice updated look, I like it. Also both on the front and backside, a USB 3.1 (Gen1) connector.
  

Bundled you'll find everything you need to get started. Adapter + power cable, 2x Cat5e Ethernet cables for anything Gigabit and then one Cat6e Ethernet cable that you should use on the Multi-Gigabit connector. That connector is backward compatible to 10, 5, 2.5 and 1 Gbps of course (as well as 100/10 Mbit/s), of course, a driver CD and manual as well as screws to secure any SSD storage units (which you obviously still need to buy). HDDs can be mounted tool-free as the NAS now has upgrade drive caddies. We'll show you that on the next pages of course.

 

In blue Cat 6e, slightly better quality and a bit more shielding. So if in the near future you are upgrading to new network cabling, please already opt for Cat 6e and be future proof. Cat 5e will also work yet after ~5 Gbps you might run into signal issues with long wiring.
