Chapter 1: Introduction 
Overview 
Thank you for choosing the Thecus N5200 IP Storage Server. The Thecus N5200 
is an easy-to-use storage server 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 and RAID 6. Gigabit Ethernet ports enhance network efficiency, 
allowing the N5200 to take over file management functions, increase application 
and data sharing and provide faster data response. The N5200 offers data 
mobility with a disk roaming feature that lets you hot swap working hard drives 
for use in another N5200, securing the continuity of data in the event of hardware 
failure. The N5200 allows data consolidation and sharing between Windows 
(SMB/CIFS), UNIX/Linux, and Apple OS X environments. The N5200’s user-
friendly GUI supports multiple languages.
