Thecus N4100 IP Storage Appliance 
 
 
Chapter 1: Introduction 
Thank you for choosing the Thecus N4100 IP Storage Appliance. The Thecus N4100 is an easy-to-
use storage appliance that allows a dedicated approach to storing and distributing data on a network. 
Data reliability is ensured with RAID features that provide data security and recovery—over one 
Terabyte of storage is available using RAID 5. Two Gigabit Ethernet ports enhances network 
efficiency, allowing the N4100 to take over file management functions, increase application and data 
sharing and provide faster data response. The N4100 offers data mobility with a disk roaming feature 
that lets you hot swap working hard drives for use in another N4100, securing the continuity of data in 
the event of hardware failure. The N4100 allows data consolidation and sharing between Windows 
(SMB/CIFS), UNIX/Linux, and Apple OS X environments. The N4100’s user-friendly GUI supports 
multiple languages.
