THE N7710-G

The N77010-G is almost entirely made out of aluminum and is the tallest NAS to ever pass from our photo bench measuring 320mm in height. It's also 210mm wide and 270mm long and weighs 8.4kg (without any drives).

Compared to the N5550 the N7710-G features a much better build quality something which you can see just by looking at its fascia.

On the right side of the fascia we find several activity LEDs (On/Off, Warning, Ethernet 1, Ethernet 2, USB), two USB 2.0 ports and the on/off power button.

Right beneath the drive bays Thecus has placed a long LCM screen with 4 navigation buttons.

The front door opens up to reveal a total of 7 aluminum trays each with its own activity LED and lock.

These drive trays are very sturdy and can hold both 2.5" and 3.5" drives.

At the rear we see two 92mm exhaust fans by Suno (2400RPM/39.52CFM/28dBA), 4 USB 2.0 Ports, 2 USB 3.0 Ports, HDMI port, VGA port and a single 10GbE port from the pre-installed PCIex card.

The N7710-G sits on 4 rubber round feet which can be removed if you wish to lower it a bit more.

Although we didn't open the N7710-G entirely due to time restrictions still we can see that it uses an 300W PSU by Enhance Electronics, that the installed DRAM module is a DDR3@1600MHz by ADATA (there are 3 more spots for you to install RAM) and that the Intel G850 CPU is cooled by a low profile top down cooler using what seems to be an 120mm fan.

As mentioned in the first page we only have 6 Enterprise Capacity 3.5 V3 4TB SATA III drives available for NAS tests but they are more than enough for 1GbE tests (although with the completion of our 10GbE testing equipment we may turn towards SSDs).
