So, here we have the unit shipped in. Light-blue and white packaging, the product is tagged and shown on the box, easy to spot and verify in the stores, though a bit harder to spot and photograph 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 6704T employs ASUTOR's traditional design; the front is composed of plastic, the outside casing is metal, and the inner frame is metal, making this a highly durable device. You may find four detachable HDD/SSD trays on top of an LCD screen with four control buttons to its right, as well as a USB 3.2 (Gen2 10 Gbps) connection on both the front and back.

Bundled, you'll find everything you need to get started. Adapter + power cable, 2x Ethernet cables for LAN on that Multi-Gigabit connector. That connector is backward compatible to 2.5 and 1 Gbps, of course (2500/1000/100/10 Mbit/s), of course, a driver CD and manual as well as screws to secure any SSD storage units (which you still need to buy). HDDs and SSDs can be mounted with screws into the trays, NVMe M.2. SSDs you can pop in click secure with a plastic mounting system.

Asustor still utilizes external power bricks. And what do you know? I like that. I've been using Asustor NAS servers at my workplace (24/7) for years, and it's reassuring to know that if a power brick fails (which, to be honest, has never occurred), I can quickly switch it out for a new one and restart the NAS device. Therefore, they are my preferred option.
