Thecus brings performance and style together into one beautiful brushed aluminum package. The N7510 features 7 drive bays and tons of file transferring goodness. The new look of the Thecus lineup’s exterior is left lonely by the dated but still functional administration. The web interface has everything you need in various categories, but it lacks the panache and polish you get from other NAS. Whenever I perform any system maintenance, I feel like Marty McFly.
The N7510 does look good, and it performs as well as NAS that cost nearly twice as much. The Intel D2701 CPU teamed up with 2GB of RAM and the Intel 82801JI SATA AHCI Controller keep data moving quickly through the dual Intel Corporation 82574L Gigabit Network Cards. The benchmarks show that this NAS can hang with the big boys.
When you put it all together and slap it with a price tag right around $700.00 USD, you get a NAS that is almost impossible to pass up. Given its price tag, the lackluster UI is something I can easily live with. If you are in the market for a speedy NAS that has great looks and plenty of 3rd party support, you need not look much farther.
